I saved a lot of money today, and I am really excited about it.
Don't you love when you go shopping and the cashier says, "you saved $742.00 today!" and that's merely a portion of what you spent? They never seem to say, "Dang, woman! Does your husband know you spent that much?!"
Because of course, he doesn't. The husbands never know.
I worked in retail back in the...well, a long time ago. Women would come in and spend bank-loads of money. They always came in pairs, and they always talked about disguising the amount they'd spent.
No one cares how much I spend, except me and God, and I can't ever hide stuff from Him. Not that I haven't tried.
But today was a Wise Purchase and I am very happy about it.
The back of my house has 6 tall windows that let the outside in a little too much. I have been looking for curtains for a long time, as the lace sheers aren't holding back the weather. I finally bought real curtains for my windows. I saved 40% off the price! And I will save further money on heating in the winter and cooling in the summer. Plus, they will be beautiful!
See? I saved money and I don't have a husband to fight with about it. If I did, he'd never have let me buy pink.
Being single isn't so bad!

Of course you got pink!
Good for you. I really need to replace my living room curtains. And I will discuss it with my husband. We're pretty much okay on the $$$ front - we're open and honest and he's a lot less stingy than he used to be, which helps!
