How are good are days when you don't spent a cent
January 24th 2007 08:03
Normally I will spend some money in a day, at the very least the cost of a longneck or two or some food, but I get a sense of satisfaction from those days when nothing has come out of my wallet.
Due to an earlier in the week shop (see the ALDI appreciation post) I am stocked up with food, so there is no need to eat out. Normally I'd have a few beers of an evening, but as there is three days of drinking coming up, I'm opting out of drinking for the day. I've stayed out of record shops - both physical ones and onlines ones and Ebay has been resisted.
So with all this taken into account, not a dollar has been spent. I'm eating and being merry, not drinking, but there are plenty of days ahead for that. As long as I don't get an invite to the pub I am sweet for the night. Just going to settle into a bit of TV and then bed and I will be able to sleep with a sense of achievement.
Problem of course is that it is a long weekend that starts tomorrow night (playing at the Sando in Newtown for those interested) and it will probably end Sunday evening. There is a good chance I will have a few bevvies, but I can look at my wallet and think back to today.
