These last few weeks of the year tend to be high, but I can definitely find more ways to cut back (clothes for me, snacks/meals out, etc!)

How about you? Do you track your daily spending? How is it going as we approach the holidays?

  1. Yes, December always seems like money flies out the window. I feel grateful that I saved the Christmas money ahead of time. I used a lot of points in November to save on Groceries so will be lower in December because of that on the grocery bill. I could have cut liquor out...but what fun would that have been :)

  2. I feel like I'm spending so much on Christmas this year. I am cutting back on groceries and other household items to try to offset the expenses. Plus, I've been spending more money on myself lately.
