Feeling insecure with $60 in the bank

May 19th, 2007 at 07:30 am

I haven't been doing so good at being frugal these past few weeks. The effect has been that I now find myself with only sixty dollars in my spending account.

The good thing is I get paid on the 21st/22nd or so, so its not too bad. I also have some cash in my purse still. I just feel really insecure because I'm used to having a buffer of >$100 at any given time in that account. Its not a good feeling.

The problem is there's been a lot of things I've been wanting lately, but before you think I'm out shopping for shoes or something, let me just say I'm so not. Smile

Instead I've been spending my money on supplements. Sigh... My life is so exciting, isn't it? Wink

Anyway, the good news is that after some searching I managed to find a couple of local online stores that have much lower prices. Its like half of what I pay for at the health food stores!

    I just spent what little I had on supplements!!! I've been sick (hospital sick) so I need the expensive kind and to buy a six month supply (to get 20% off) was $270 or so. and I'm moving! I feel your pain.

    It's ok once in a while to fall below the "buffer" as long as it is not an ongoing issue.

    I have found Web Vitamins online to be competive with others. Plus, they are very helpful if you have a question. All I do is to put a particular supplement name on search and a bunch of companies pop up that sell that supplement and you'd be surprized at the difference in the prices.
