Save, Save, Save

I just realized it has been way to long since my last post, and not to mention how Kimm has told me that I MUST blog, or else.

Bryan and I have been saving like mad. We are on Vacation in 21 days. Wow. I’m getting excited! One of my money saving techniques has been that I canceled my car insurance. I took the insurance off my car for the summer. I will save over $600 this summer alone, not to mention saving money on gas ($1.50/L!). I have been riding my bike to work basically everyday, it has been loads of fun. I do not call my self a hardcore cyclist, as I do have the option to drive the truck to work, but I will only use the truck when it is pissing rain outside. Which is understandable….

Bryan and I have made a pact, we both want to be more active after work instead of just sitting around watching T.V. I even canceled our cable (saving $60/month) as do we really need to be watching T.V.? When it is summertime and the fact that we spend more time playing video games than watching T.V.?

With all this money saving changes I still feel broke. I guess with the fact that I am so close to being out of debt and the fact that I hardly have anything major saved up for this vacation that I am going to be tapping into my Line of Credit for this vacation a little bit, and also the fact that I am planning on heading to school in September and that is going to cost money as well….. I know everything will turn out just right in the end.

I wish I could ride my bike to work but it’s about a 45 minute drive. Good for you for doing that!

I hope you have a great time on vacation!
