30 day money diet challenge Don't Break the Chain

Haven't wanted to buy anything weird, mostly just wanting to stop at Starbucks or Ravelin's.

Now I need to focus on stuff I am going to do instead of spending money;

Finish Reading Unbearable Lightness of Being

Get rid of old iphones

Sell my Wii

Sell some old clothes on the old ebay

Go through wardrobe

Organize a clothes swap

Get my robot camera working

Frame the art I have around the house

Frame the new diploma

Weed through some of my old books and sell

Digitize cds

Work on my Halloween costume

30 day money diet challenge.

Throughout college I worked, normally full-time jobs. This mean that as my friends struggled to pay bills, I was just fine. However, in all of that time, I have never had to budget or really live without. Boo hoo. I know that I am very susceptible to the impulse buy. So I decided to go on a 30 day money diet.

The rules I have set for myself are pretty simple.
1. No dining out.
2. No purchases that are not food.
3. No fast food or coffee from coffee bars or drinks at bars.

I have allotted a small amount for trivia night (two beers) once a week, and my Halloween costume (most of which I believe I have already). The purpose is to use the stuff I already own and be more creative.

It's only been three days and it's fine, however there have been a number of weird items that I have wanted to purchase. I have no idea why some of these were tempting me, but here is the short list so far;
1. A swim cap
2. goggles
3. This map I found on ebay. 
4. This thing
5. This shirt (to be fair, I own this in a different color and I am right to want another, so soft)
