Forced Submission

July 14th, 2010 at 10:59 pm

Okay. Since I can't keep myself from going to BK for my Cini-mini fix, I have come up with an idea. I took both of my debit cards, filled up a ziploc bag with water, put the cards in and put it in the freezer. I have about $3 to last until Friday. I filled up my gas tank. Stopped and got cat food and dog food. I should be good until Friday. Then I am going to a cash basis. Complete with envelopes. I am going to beat this thing.

    I feel you, sister! I'm trying to break my fast food addiction too and it isn't easy.

    Great idea! DH was having trouble blowing all his "fun money" on lunches just because he didn't feel like eating what he brought from home. Vicious cycle. He finally just took his debit card out of his wallet. All of a sudden he has $600 in savings! Not bad.

    Ha! Great idea. My DH sometimes puts cash in the freezer so he won't spend it.
