Just can't get excited about president's day this year.Window shopping here too. Cabela's has a President Sale plus...I didn't find anything I couldn't live without.
Hubby wants about 3 times as much salsa this year I stopped in at a local store to see if they had any jars back in stock. They had quart jars on sale for $11.99/ doz. I got 4 boxes. We might need another couple boxes, but I will have to wait another month or 2 before I can do that again.
Haven't saved much recently. Been putting $$ into materials for the raised beds. But come summer and fall, our food cost will be much lower and we'll be putting stuff up to carry through the winter as well. I fully expect food inflation to be much higher by that point than it has been this past year. Inflation has been growing since Covid started. Now with all the stimulus being put out, hold on cause we ain't seen inflation like this in a long time.
No spending if I can help it at all.
Just monthly bills.
Not alot of spending going on besides monthly bills.
Once in while an added principle car payment.
Small spend day.
I'm out of coffee or just about.

Might splurge and get a drink from Sonic.

That's awesome Mo! Have you ever played with the loan calculators? Bankrate is one. You can see "if you pay this much, you'll pay it off in X months" etc. I think it's kinda encouraging. I like seeing how quickly it will be goneI used my stimulates check today to stimulate the local economy.
Paid 2 years of taxes, penalites for property taxes for county and city taxes.(old address-didn't receive them)
That was a big hit of $485.45.
Made extra principle payment on new to me car of $350.
Car loan is now under $7500.
Will keep throwing added principle payments towards it to get it paid off sooner than later.
Car loan interest rate is 3.67%.
The new to me car is the only debt I have besides monthly expenses.
Have paid everything else off.
Paid it forward on the Internet bill $69.99
Bought meat bundles to the tune of $185.
But that fills my chest freezer and refrig freezer for 6 months or better.
So every month, I put extra $25 into fixed expenses saving account for future meat purchases.
Made an extra saving account deposit of $100.
Also made extra deposit into emergency account of $100.
Still have money in checking.
Got the oldest grand daughter a special gift for her birthday in June.
