My husband has been actually spending more. We are trying to stay reasonable. My husbands tablet has been acting out and he really wanted iPad. It seems unreasonably expensive. So he ended up buying 10” kindle fire yesterday which is close to the price of iPad! Might as well buy iPad. He now says I told him not to buy iPad. Lol I didn’t! I just said wow it’s expensive. Kindle fire is nice though. I like mine.
I think it might all even out because people don’t eat out as much or go places or buy gas so it’s saves few hundreds a month which you deserve to spend on stuff you want. Right?
I watch entirely too much tv and eat too much. These are tough times and we all need something fun!

Thanks, Divine! I needed to hear some affirmation! You make a good point! I'm not spending money on gas, on dining out, or on entertainment or on food at work -- guess it all adds up to extra funds!
Yes, we all need something fun right now -- absolutely! I love having gifts to look forward to....
That actually made me laugh a little about your iPad story. lol. Glad you like the kindle! My husband just mentioned wanting an iPad next, and I was like, no, that's where we have to draw the line ! lol. Only what we can actually AFFORD.
But yeah, I feel a bit nuts!!! Like in the "Confessions of a Shopaholic" movie. lol
