How many hours do I have left to shop???

Can you tell I'm freaking out yet? I think it's starting to get to Aaron also. I've heard him tell Mac on a few occasions today "Mac, this is our last day to have fun!" LMAO!

We went to Best Buy and picked up the Flip video camera, a new case for it, a water filter for the fridge because it will only be a matter of time before it needs one, and a video game for Aaron's Xbox. $370 later we walked out of Best Buy! I was expecting to spend some money there, but not quite that much. I forget about how much tax adds up on stuff like that along with the warranty (btw...is it me or has BB raised the prices on their warranty's?!?). I've wanted this video camera for a while now because I can't stand the one we have. It's just too big

I'm trying to decide what to do about some questions Aaron had tonight. He wants to know if we don't use up all of our eating out allowances one month can they be carried over? And...he's thinking it would be better to set a dollar amount on our weekly/monthly going out to eat allowance instead of it being a per visit thing. He doesn't think a trip to Sonic for a Vanilla Coke should cost him the same as going to Macaroni Grill. I see his point, so I'm trying to decide what we should do.

  1. We're making a cash envelope for our food budget and putting a set amount of money in there. When it's gone, it's gone. :) If there's money left in it at the end of the month, we'll roll it over or put it in our emergency savings fund.
