First, I just want to say that I don't give a crap about the Patriots. Is that bad? It's the only thing people are talking about here. I don't get it. A bunch of dudes who aren't even from New England all teamed up and won a game. Actually - I think there's about 53 people on the Patriots lineup and only 5 have New England ties. All this football hoopla might be a little more interesting if the players actually came from the state/region they are playing for. That's just me. I hope I don't get beat up for admitting that.
Well regardless, I didn't spend any money yesterday. We did partake in some free fun - 2 hours of sledding. Can't be two hours of free entertainment. 9 more days of the month! I think I'm going to continue my cheap streak and keep going with trying to Occupy My Wallet past January. I like it. I've gone 22 days so far without buying any material objects - I did hit up Old Navy but paid in all rewards (so no money spent and the stuff went as a gift to someone). I do have an Old Navy Groupon I have to use by the 31st so I'll take advantage of that. I also have Staples Rewards to use, but they don't expire until February 29th.
In case you missed it - my whole "Occupy My Wallet" movement is my own personal one where I want to actually save money and protest buying crap that I don't need. I'm not blaming others for my own poorness - no, I just have to admit that I buy a lot of crap that I really don't need. Maybe if I stop that, then my life will be less chaotic and I should start taking joy in the stuff that I actually have and not stuff that I want.
That is all.
