Thanks for the link! I have been so happy to see everyone rally around a good cause! We have been having a great Compact. When you don't give yourself the choice, the choice is easier. Greetings!

"The true goal for No Spend Month is to practice making expenditures planned and purposeful, rather than impulsive and temporarily satisfying." That is a wonderful goal...and I bet a hard habit to break for many of us. Thank you! Michelle Just found your site…a friend posted a link in our crafting group.

My husband and I did the same thing only in January. I think we will make it an annual event, also. It was hard at first but we both (especially me) learned alot about our spending habits. Since last January, I don't shop as often and use what we have on hand, more often. Much easier during the summer, with the "victory" gardens. Hanging in there!

Thanks so much for the inspiration! That’s great- after getting all this stuff bought for my son’s school, we could maybe consider doing it for September. Thanks so much for the inspiration!

I think I'm going to do it in August, I've been more conscious of my spending this month and have done better about not wasting money but I think setting a limit would help even more.

If nothing else, I can say that my spending decisions have been conscious ones this month! At least I'm aware of where our money is going. I've not had lunch out for 3 weeks; been brown bagging it from home every.single.day. Rachel – thanks for the link.
