No Spend September
Beginning of August is time for a fresh start. The smell on new school supplies and sneakers are in the air. End of summer sales are strong. It is a time of transition and with transition often comes spending. Some of the spending can't be prevented, only regulated- your kids have to wear clothes right?
So, what better time than just after this transition in September to have a "No Spend" month. And FYI... this works anytime, so if your aren't feeling September, October works too. There doesn't have to be alliteration ;)
What is a "No Spend Month?"
I am so glad you asked. Generally speaking you have to spend some money month to month or your electricity gets turned off and the bank starts to call.
What I am talking about here is a slashing of spending down to the bare minimum in order to save for a specific purpose.
Sooooooo... this August each Monday I will be walking through each week how to set up a successful No Spend Month!
Week 1: Intro
Week 2: Set Parameters and Goals
Week 3: Creativity and Accountability
Week 4: Make Extra Money (Extra Credit;))
Won't you join me on this journey? I would love to support each other through this!
