Day 29 – The penultimate post – My Gypsy Soul Wandering

So today is the second last day of No Spend Month and I must say I think there are a lot of habits that I will be continuing after it ends tomorrow. So here are a few quick points of the pros and cons of this month.

Pros:

I have completely reigned in my online shopping habit.
I have so much more energy from not eating any take out or fast food.
I have been a lot more prepared in regards to meals.
There is still food left so I don’t have to grocery shop this week either.
I figured out that the butchers gives marrow bones for free instead of me buying two every week.
I now have extra spending money for my cruise, woot!

Cons:

Sometimes when I forgot to take something out of the freezer I snacked instead of eating a full meal.
There are certain things that I waste money on like ice cream and mini lego figures but I think they’re worth it so that probably is not going to change.
When I did go shopping I found it so hard to resist.
I watched way more series that I ever have before instead of online shopping, I need to read more before my brain rots.
Sometimes I just felt like scrooge.

But all in all it was a success. I’ve done a lot of wandering beaches and forests yesterday and today but thats another post. Right now I’m off for a bath and bed, can you jut hear the nursing home calling me!
