Spend nothing work week
Ok, so I am going to try a little experiment, and you are all invited to join me:
It is called: Spend nothing work week(tm).

The objective: To go Monday-Friday without spending anything.
Why? This is not a political tirade against consumerism. I just feel like I burn through money and I would like to check my spending impulses.

The rules:
1)Buy a week's worth of bus tickets/tokens on Sunday night.
2) Spend $40 dollars on groceries ($60 per couple)
3) Bring lunches. Do not take cabs. Do not get your muckaluckachino at S*arB*cks.
4) If there must be an exception, note it in advance (I always buy the student I tutor a pop on Thursdays)

Anyone want to try this with me?
