Re: How long can you go without spending any money?

I don't like to go shopping. I Internet shop in spurts. I have a lot of storage available, at last count I had about 70 rolls of TP, 2 freezers. Get beef and pork from farmer by the half. Qvc about 1 a month or so. Walmart 3x a year for tooth paste, mouth wash, razors etc. I don't like WM but you have to go once in awhile. LLB about every 3 months.

Hubs brings milk and bread home as needed. We grocery shop about every 3 weeks.

If amazon closed I'd be rich, probably order from them 4x a month.

Re: How long can you go without spending any money?

I only have utility bills and my A. Express for monthly shopping so I have been blessed and worked hard to be debt free.  Yet I do have to stay strong and not shop to be that way and put as much as possible in retirement acct. ect..........

This year I have start a new thing that any $20.00 bills still in my wallet on Monday morning from the week-end cash I got goes into a envelope at home for end of the year playing.  Starting to add up now so I am going to move to fire proof instead of envelope.  It is hard to just stay put and read a book sometime but when it is only you supporting only you for old age then motivation is easy.  

So not counting basic monthly bills and food quite awhile.

Re: How long can you go without spending any money?

How long can you go or how long do you go is two different things.  

I could probably go without spending money for 2 weeks or until I needed gas for work.

 

How long do I go?  I go to the store every Thursday and Saturdayand I get gas once a week.
