That Much!!


                                                        Hello My Cheap Cheetah Family

That's my look last night after I went over my yearly totals of household expense. We spend so much money I wanted to cry.  I am not talking just basic living expenses I am talking credit card expenses, taxes on houses, repair bills, car insurance, medical copayments. It was a lot of money we spent. Some was needed and some was just unnecessary. The reason I needed to know about where the money went last year is because I am getting older and I need to start and stay on a budget. My income from my pension and social security will force me to be very tight with my money. Also, I have to confess I fell off the cheapskate wagon. Now I not only have to get back on I have to ride it until the wheels fall off of it and then put the wheels back on and continue to ride it.

Things are so darn high with inflation eating out is expensive, grocery shopping is expensive. It's hard for a cheapskate to find anything free anymore. Got any suggestions would love to hear them.

Happy New Year


                                                                    Hello Family

Happy New Year! Is inflation killing your money like it is mine? Who would have thought that a dozen of eggs would cost $5-7 dollars. Or a tub of butter is $10.  Is food crazy or what. Forget eating meat anytime soon. Unless it's on a manager's special and marked down a bit. that's how I look for my meats nowadays.

If inflation has not taught, you how to be creative with the money. You will be. I take inflation and prices being crazy has a lesson we can all learn. Inflation is here for who knows how long so we can either let it beat us or we can try and beat it. It's been beating the cheapskate up in me for a minute, but I am going to turn that around in 2023. You will see.
