Hey – as another partaker of the party food, I also say thank you. You are THE BOMB.

oooh ooh for the Half Priced Books junkie: try bookmooch.com! you swap books for free (just pay shipping, and since you can use media mail the rates are even lower!) My boyfriend and I do that for most of our reading material. And you can create a wish list so you get emails when a book you are looking for becomes available. Especially helpful for students with reading lists adn not a lot of disposable cash.

I like that someone else can do the “dirty work” of finding the deals for me. Best of luck! I look forward to the help!

I have a Target habit too. Its amazing what I end up buying that I didn’t even know I “needed”. Hmmph.

Well, good luck on this week’s challenge.

I know you’re currently in a self-imposed band from our favorite store, but you have to remember to take your own bags the next time you go to Target. Saves 5 cents for each one! I saved 15 cents last week! It’s not much but with my other coupons and over a year, I could average 5 bucks in savings!

I feel totally out of it. I have to check out Lady Gaga (how did I get to be such an old lady?)

I too may have to cave on some Lady Gaga, my 3 daughters are totally into Bad Romance (and they’re 4, 6 and 10!). Not sure if that’s good yet! I admire your no fast food plan for last week. I too am trying to bring lunches to work instead always eating out. Besides it being so expensive, it also gets boring and I know not the healthiest! Can’t wait until spring and can find a part near my new work in Stillwater to go walking!!!

I second the congrats on the challenges, avoiding fast food and all. For me, it’s trying to lure myself *away* from places like Half Price Books (I’m a book fanatic, ack!). It’s really hard sometimes to self-impose limits or bans (temporary or not). But it CAN be done, as you have illustrated, Erin. I confess, it’s still hard for me to drag my keester away from any store selling books (and even the sale rack at the library — come on, fifty cents for a paperback?? Dude!! *sigh*), but it’s getting easier. Continued good luck with your challenges! Thanks for the inspiration.

I like these weekly challenges. I may institute a few a my own and start blogging about them. Great idea!
