BellaOnline Forums Money Frugal Living What did you SPEND money on today?

After visiting family for an overnight stay and a whole day in New Jersey, my husband and I spent nothing - they wouldn't take anything.

However, our girls are staying the week in NJ and they dropped us off at home. My husband invited me to dinner (just the 2 of us) in Soho, NY to a restaurant that one of his clients owns. After a few blocks of walking, we found the place. We drew money out of an ATM because it was a cash only place....it was heaving with people!!

Suddenly, my husbands friend/owner came up from the cellar helping with the garbage and saw him. There was a 1 hour wait for seating. He got us seated at the bar where we ate succulent bbq shrimp and spicy garlic butter clams.

The check came back to us with $0.00. It was free. We tipped the bartender $15.00. The bill was $31.00. He was a happy camper and so were we! Sometimes, it's good to have friends!

We shall return. The restaurant was The Crab Boil in Soho, Manhattan if you're down that way. Awesome food and be prepared to wait a bit, They close at 11 p.m.

Today I spent 12,72$ in the Familiprix of Causapscal (4,29$ for 1 box of q-tips 4,99$ for 1 small dinosaur that makes a noise [also came with a small zipped pouch that i gave to my mom] 1,79$ for 25 face washing towels).

Hi Nancy. The only thing I have spent money on this week is lunch. In reality, it is more like lunches. Since we returned home from vacation I have been going out to lunch a lot. I think I am supporting all the local restaurants. Unfortunately, I cannot control the calorie intake going out to lunch.

I need to start walking again too.

I just spent 18,32$ with the seller WizKidz on Amazon Canada (1 Early Years Squeaky Legs Teddy Toy at 9,99$).

Today I paid the satellite bill (196,04$).

I just spent 39,80$ on Sequoia Records (1 free cd and free shipping.....1 cd at 9,98$ 1 cd at 14,91$ 1 cd at 14,91$).

I just spent 76,19$ with the seller Urban Inspirations on Amazon Canada (1 Elmo Through The Years at 62,79$).
