  • Financial Update

    So, I’ve updated my progress bars to the right, there. I’ve made a couple of stupid moves lately, so I’m in money-saving mode right now. I’m not in debt and probably never will be, but right now I feel as though I haven’t been diligent enough in managing my money. Bad Ginger! Anyway, since I […]

  • Can you live without TV?

    Dear FB wrote an excellent post the other day on the true costs of watching and owning a TV. I thought this was a truly excellent post because I, myself have realized the cost savings of not having cable. When my roommate and I moved in, she had already been without TV for a while. […]

  • PayPal = DEATH GLARE

    I hate PayPal and eBay now. It’s official. They dick you around and steal your money, all without you having a clue to what’s going on. Long story short is that I tried selling some of my clothing on eBay (since it’s nice stuff and too big [yay!] for me now). Most of it sold […]

  • Stupid Spending!

    Ack! I’m in hot water now! So, you know this weekend how I bought all those lovely new things? Yeah umm… I guess I can’t really afford them at the moment. *sheepish* I just looked at my MasterCard bill and it’s over $1000. I don’t think I’ve ever seen it that high before, other than […]

  • Easter Weekend

    Well, I had a great Easter weekend this time around, but unfortunately I’ve blown not only my diet but my budget to hell as well! Bummer. The diet woes started on Thursday, I went out with the people from work to Hooters for the night… much beer and fried chicken products ensued. Friday I had […]

  • As Promised…

    Here’s for another money post! I’m working on another Going Green post and some product reviews (product junkie, right here, everyone!) to post in the future, as well as one about the new Jenny Craig diet I’ve just started. But first, I wanted to do an update on my personal finances, and the Bridesmaid Costs […]

  • Financial Update

    I really should be in bed right now, but I just painted my nails with my fave nail colour: OPI’s I’m Not Really A Waitress. Coincidentally, this is the best-selling colour of red out there. This photo really doesn’t do it justice. Maybe once I clean my nails up I’ll take a photo to show […]

  • Financial Review

    So you may have noticed that I’ve added some progress bars to the side of my blog. I found them on a personal finance-related blog, a girl was using them to track her savings for various things, as well as her climb out of debt. I thought it was a pretty cool idea and I […]
