My daughter need jeans desperately since it is rapidly getting cold around here. The last time we got jeans, I took her to the consignment shop down the street that has really nice stuff. They are very picky about what they accept. The other option is to use the credit card that I have been trying to pay off, which has about $70 available on it, to get her two pair of jeans. What would you do?
I borrowed the money from my mom to get her some jeans at the consignment store. I could have used the CC but would have spent more for the same jeans. I am not discplined enough to pay it off next week when I get paid, but I will pay my mom back. So i think I made the wise decision, although I hate borrowing money!
What would you have done?

Having on time bills is HUGE! That is progress. Really.
Just remember it is a journey. Keep moving forward. Keep making good decisions on the journey and you'll get where you want to be.

Maybe you are forgetting to set aside money for things before they come up? They WILL come up, it's the nature of life, most of these expenses can just seem to slip our mind until BLIP it's time to pay the piper.
