I gave myself a budget of $25 for January, but in the back of my mind told myself I'd not spend anything. I almost made it, but broke down today and I'm glad I did.

I was in need of more Ribbon Ring tags for my room organization and had planned to buy them next month. But another SCS member was getting rid of hers, so we made a deal. Today, I gave her $5.75 for something she no longer wants and I get my Ribbon Ring tags for $5.50 less than they would have cost me for a new set. It was a win-win situation.
