Mondays are usually low-spending (AKA low-wasting) days for me. Nobody has social obligations on Monday, right? No Tupperware parties or book clubs are ever planned for Monday. "I'm stressed @ work, meet me @ happy hour" texts rarely arrive on this day. After a weekend of eating at restaurants & bbqs, most people just want to eat at home, so nobody asks me to join them for din-din. Movies are never seen on Monday. No fun ever happens on Monday.
Monday is return-to-work day... But not for me, not anymore! Instead, it was be-lazy-then-run-some-errands day for me. I hit the grocery store and promptly forked over $80 (but I'm not counting that because it's not "fun money"). I should note, I'm a freaking champion grocery shopper. I could write books about my mad grocery shopping skillz, yo! Seriously, you'd ask me to shop for you if had any idea. (Which I'll gladly do, if you pay me.) ;)
I resisted having lunch with a friend... I reallyREALLYreally don't want to go over $25. So, I repeat: No fun ever happens on Monday. It has me thinking though... Before this, I must have been wasting truckloads of money, mindlessly.
Day 4, No-Fun-Monday: I spent $0! Final tally: $6 remaining. Even I'M impressed with me!

ReplyDeleteI have fun on Mondays!! At quiz night at the Crown... cost = $2, unless you eat or drink :p but that's not a requirement! :) The winning team gets all the $2 admission fees (so you *could* come out ahead!) and 2nd and 3rd get gift certificates to the Crown, for next time!
