What are my goals for this year, 2013? Well they are quite simple actually. My big goal is to save at least 10% of my money , every time I get some money that is. I mean dosn't everybody want some money saved up for something big and extragavent that you want. I mean I do. Or it can be saved up as something like emergency cash in case of a emergency or something. I just like knowing that I have money, dosn't eveyone. I have to admit saving is hard, but once you get started it'll be a peice of cake.
One little goal to get me their is to stop buying stupid things. Period. No cheap anything from cheap stores like the 99 cent store. No buying things that I already have( I do that alot)Also Avoid impulse buying: Make it a habit to avoid impulse buying. Many of the things you want to buy do not seem all that necessary, if you only you wait for a day or two. Also, waiting means you will be able to check prices and make an informed decision to buy it at the best possible price.
My second little goal is to watch my spendinng at the theaters. If you like watching movies at the theater, go before 6:00 pm. This is one of my soft spots when it comes to spending. I really like watching movies in the theater with the big screen and the great sound effects. But instead of paying ~$15 for the ticket, I usually go before 6:00pm when the tickets are a little less expensive. Also, for movies that we don’t absolutely want to watch right away, we just wait until it shows on the discount theater where the tickets are $2-3 a ticket. We avoid the temptation to buy snacks, by sometimes sneaking in our own snacks in the purse. (Ok not sometimes all the time but I'm not the only one).
These 2 little steps will eventually lead me to my big goal!!!
Thanks for reading and have a nice day:)
