It is shocking how hard it can be not to spend for one day. It really allows you to see how your life is attached to a debit card. :) I really like this activity and think it would be great to create a habit where one day a week i will not spend anything. It causes me to be creative and be "awake" in my life. <abbr><em>Michael Monizs last blog post..<a href="http://michael-moniz.com/invisible-girl/" rel="nofollow">Invisible Girl</a></abbr></em> I love a bold request like this.

To add to that I am working on a startup now. I am proud to say I have been spending mostly on necessities. I figure we will have to continue to do that for the next year. So I really have not bought anything besides groceries and gas in a while .... I am learning all new ways to save :) <abbr><em>Mayas last blog post..<a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/ThinkMaya/~3/421829714/" rel="nofollow">Born Into Poverty : Blog Action Day 2008</a></abbr></em> I became stay home mom a few months ago.
