Family Balance Sheet

JULY 16, 2015

Dining Out. We used to spend hundreds of dollars a month going out to eat at restaurants. In fact, there was a time that I rarely cooked over the weekends, because we ate out so often. Restaurants can be a huge drain on any budget, but there are ways to enjoy a meal out without spending a lot of money.

Choose Thrift First. I have made a pact with myself that if I don’t already own something that I need, I will either: make do with what I have, find said item at a thrift store, borrow, or forget about it. And if forgetting about it isn’t an option, only then will I step foot into a store to purchase it.

While I love thrift stores, I can be easily swayed to run into Target, TJ Maxx, and/or Kohl’s when I feel like I need something. I’m curious to see how much we can save and also how creative we can get by making do with what we already own or looking for things at a thrift store. Restaurants. Plan our Spending.
