Oh my goodness … I’m not sure if I’d WANT to see how much I spend on books. It’d be interesting to see, but I’d probably start hyperventilating over the number. Good for you keeping track!
Great job at sticking with your budgeting Felicia! 😀 WooHoo!
I think I added up once how much I was spending on books and I instantly deleted it so the hubs wouldn’t see 🙂
Wow Felicia, that is amazing! I totally admire you. The more I try to keep a budget, the more I spend. I just keep getting emails from people who sold me second hand books before with new batches, and I just can’t say no. And of course I need all the new shiny books that are published as well. Last month forced me to sell over 50 of my own books to my best friend, and I had not even read them yet. Of course I can always borrow them back if I want to do that in the future.
Great work Felicia! Just think of all of the things you can buy with that extra $333 in your pocket.
WTG! I’m trying to spend as little as possible and then a REALLY good sale on books I want comes along… *sigh*
So far I have resisted the sale urge but I have forced myself not to look LOL
WELL DONE FELICIA!!! Those 2012 totals look mighty familiar, I’ve gotten many a credit card bill with 294582093482 lines that say “Amazon Kindle”, and while my bank account hates seeing those lines, they just make me happy. I’ve been doing a bit better this year as well, though no where near as well as you!
YEP! I have to admit my life is a little sadder without all the gems but I am hoping that it makes a huge impact on the bottom line. LOL
Congrats! That is really something to be proud of!
I am trying!
Congratulations Felicia!! That is some amazing progress. 🙂
I was amazed at the difference but hoping to do better in 2nd Quarter. This actually gave me a push to do that LOL
My March spending definitely looked more like your 2012 months, oops! It’s not like I actually need any more books either, there were just so many pretty things D:
Anya @ On Starships and Dragonwings
The reason I did this was because of my 1500 unread books LOL I seriously need to read some 🙂
wow! That’s impressive!
Crossing fingers next quarter is even better 🙂
That is an amazing savings, way to go!
Thanks 🙂
oh I’m afraid to budget my books or even write out how much I spend. It is an ungodly amount! Do you just keep a long when you spend or do you have a special program you use?
I just use excel. I actually have the numbers for the last 5 years but admitting that total would get me sent to virtual hoarders LOL
Wow Felicia! That’s incredible! Way to go!
I am trying LOL I am hoping for a better 2nd quarter 🙂
