    I'm VERY bad with spending money. After all necessary expenses are covered, I spend what's left instead of 'saving for a rainy day'.

    Consequently, I've adopted an 'out of sight, out of mind' solution -- I invest a ridiculously high percentage of my paycheck, and the rest of the money is automatically deposited in a savings / second checking account I don't have access to via ATMs or the like.

    So I can't spend a large portion of my money. The money I have left is spent on food and gasoline, James and Ashley (just kidding!), and if my friends actually bothered to do something, maybe them.

    This works for me. And trust me, if you think that's excessive, you're talking to / reading the post of somebody who could easily outshop you.

    The last 'reckless' purchase I made recently was 250 dollars in clothes at Randy River -- while they had a 'store closing sale' where most everything was between 50-90% off.

    I had 4 bags of clothes to bring home.

    I had $17.50 stashed away so I can save up (don't have a job or a bank account yet -.o) and had to spend $3 on lunch at school. I've had that money since Christmas...That's actually decent for me o.o Usually I would have gone out and bought something by now but I'm determined to save up.

    Then there's my booze buying habbits; "Duuuude, that bottle os orange and has flames on it!" "That bottles has an awesome shape!" "whoooa, that has a rope around the neck." Blasted flashy bottles forcing me to buy them.
    If I made one that was glittery and ripply and tasted like kiwi strawberry when (if?) you lick it, would you buy it?
    You just described my penis.
    You should maybe get that glittery-ness and kiwi strawberry-ness checked out...I hear those are the symptoms of herpes

    That'll be ready for you in a week or so
