No buy year 2021 Jan Log
I actually did buy a few more things this month then I intended but they were for late Christmas gifts and the like so those don’t count.
First thing is a Nintendo Eshop gift card:
Think some of you may have seen this but there was a price error due to human error or whatever that caused this to be pretty heavily discounted for 49.54 dollars. It was a coin toss to whether you could get one since Walmart was cancelling orders to try to fix the mistake.
But luckily they didn’t cancel my order and got two. Gave one as a late Christmas gift and redeemed one for myself.
Next a Beanie:
Had to pick up a new hat since my old ones were getting pretty worn out. I used to shop a ton on Huckberry.com but showed some restraint. This buy was kind of half and half. Was kind of an indulgence but I could kind of put it as a need. But I’ll still put it towards the strike in the challenge. 28 dollars.
And lastly job, roommate and basically everything happening right now is stressing me out. 34.94 for the pen and will pick up the oils later. Still cheaper than smoking in the long run.
And that’s about it. Everything else was a need and/or a gift for others. Didn’t really have time to shop last month due to working overtime. Could really use a Gimbal for my camera but that can wait for the projects. I’ve counted my chickens before they hatched and it burned me in the past. Unless the next project is paid for I’m not going to invest more than I need to.
Also pretty proud of myself for not eating out for the entire month. Been bringing my own lunch since the start of the year and avoided getting a quick bite on the weekends. Been tempted a few times due to laziness but just made a quick snack instead.
