About Me:

We're both 26 years old, and have been married a little over 2 years now. Just trying to prioritize so that we can have the things we want in the future (i.e. house, baby)!

Need to do some ebay-ing.

December 11th, 2009 at 01:31 am

Spending Log:

Gas for Me: $10
My Lunch: $6
DH's Lunch: $4.50
One of My Christmas Gifts from DH: $8

---

We stunk at the lunch thing today. DH actually made sandwiches and packed them with some drinks, then forgot to take them with him to work. I saw them sitting on our couch when I got up. I wasn't even supposed to work today, but after my boss's boss showed up and was mad about random things, I ended up rushing out the door in half-dry clothes. So needless to say, didn't pack lunch. Blah.

We also had to drive about 45 minutes (one way) to get DH's old TV from his parents' house, and take it back to my work. They'd better appreciate my dedication. Hopefully it will get me somewhere, someday.

On a side note, I need to put some things on Ebay or Craigslist. I guess I should try Craigslist first, since it's free. We still have so many boxes that we haven't unpacked from our move, sitting in our spare bedroom. I want to get it unpacked and organized, but there is so much stuff! And the kicker... there are quite a few brand new bottles of Bath & Body Works lotion sets, etc. that I got for Christmas or my birthday and haven't used. I mean, if you forget that you have something and haven't looked for it in the six months since you moved in... chances are you can live without it. Plus, even if we got a dollar out of it, it's better than cluttering up our house. And any extra money around Christmas is good. Smile

I post a note at eye level on the door I use to go to the car with HEATER and LUNCH written on it so I don't forget to turn off the hearter and grab my lunch when I leave.

@debtfreeme
...as long as you don't turn off your lunch and grab the heater, you are in good shape! =)

@ftf
I think that you are right about getting rod of things (even NEW things) that are not being used. This can be so hard for some people! I know that my mom struggles with this, and it leads to a lot of stress for her. If you can get any money out of it at all, then it is a win-win situation. You have the insurance that you are not going to add to clutter AND you get some money, PLUS someone else gets a good deal and is happy about it. Enjoy your Craigslisting!
