Hi 444... Yep look around the blog, I used to pay almost 160 a month just on interest!

I'm so so so very happy for you. I'm excited and it's not even my credit card! LOL

Congratulations, Mr. HS. I know it was hard but you are reaching your goals.

Cheers!

Congratulations! I know what it's like. I used to pay an unbelievable amount of interest. It's great to remember the pain so we remember not to go back there.

I bought makeup and hair stuff for about $80 and I'm going to try to do my grocery shopping today so maybe another $50? I didn't spend anything yesterday or friday so it was a very cheap weekend!

2012-02-05T01:18:42.832-06:00

I've done pretty well this weekend! Bought groceries Saturday (about $80 worth) and other than that I stayed home and cleaned out my closet. Not an exciting weekend, but at least it was cheap. :)

2012-02-01T14:45:21.271-06:00

Great job paying everything down! You've definitely stayed focus. And worse case scenario: dip into the emergency fund. It can always go right back.

I've lived on a ramen diet for weeks before. Ewwwww. You do what you gotta do.

Come on payday!
BTW, you can buy a lot of eggs and bacon with that much money. And salad greens. Just saying. ;)

Good job on the debt paydown!

HEY E!

Of course, the point not to go and spend but only if something comes up... Yep only 1.5 days!!

2012-02-01T12:28:42.468-06:00

You should challenge yourself to live on the amount of money that's there and try not to use those credit cards. It's only for 1.5 more days. If you need gas, get just enought to get you to work until pay day instead of filling the tank. Need to eat? I bet you have more food than you think between your fridge and your pantry. Point is - don't rack up more credit card debt. You

2012-02-01T11:40:08.571-06:00

You can do it! Only a few more days left. And wow, you really kicked those card's hineys last month! I used to get nervous about having no money on my bank account since I was on the 0 budgetting style, so I semi switched. I have $50 "ghost" money (from savings) that always stays on my checking account, just to be there. Oh, the wonders of small psychological cues!

Josey! Congrats on the job!! HS

Hey, all those worries about the nursery furniture and it turns out that the 'rents paid for it after all! That's pretty good, huh? :o)

2012-01-30T12:23:32.261-06:00

Can we have photos of the nursery? I'm sure it looks great. And what a wonderful gift from your parents. From experience with my brother's family, nursery furniture is expensive!

Love your positive attitude. Sounds like the nursery is all ready! I know you guys have got to be thrilled. :)

And don't worry about that little wright gain. It's amazing how fast it goes down when you watch what you eat/drink and exercise.

Nice that your parents got the furniture!! That's one expense you don't have to worry about. Yay!

2012-01-30T10:18:40.455-06:00

Thanks for the link love! And it sounds like you guys are all nested and getting into gear. Don't forget to have your car seat installed by the police (a free service!!)

Any names you would like to share with your adoring audience?

Yup they don't like to give up cash... that's why I go with gift cards.

2012-01-26T19:10:18.318-06:00

Citi does not have the best rewards program. They don't even give you 1:1 ratio. For me to redeem $250 gift check requires 35,000 points. They don't even give you an opportunity to redeem them at a 1 to 1 ratio. At best, I get 0.71 cents per point.

I just got 25,000 points for signing up for a Citi card, but was shocked it was not redeemable for cash value to $250. Amazon Gift

2012-01-26T13:12:16.459-06:00

Man, your reward program beats mine by such a long, long shot! Kind of jealous, but not jealous enough I will change cards... maybe later on once my credit card is completely gone, I'll find one with really good rewards.

2012-01-25T19:05:13.825-06:00

Nice!!! Good job! Almost completely out of debt! Then what will Mr. HS blog about? Lol

Seriously, you're doing really good. Stay focused. You can do it!
