Saving log - $2 tip box
Spending log - $1.19 coffee + $13 lunch + $7 groceries
I got the first paycheck after my new 403B withholding. In case you missed it, I hiked up my 403B withholding to bulk up my non-taxable accounts, force me to spend my taxable accounts, and basically put me in a better tax position for next year.
Better tax position, baselle, better tax position. Keep repeating that while I blink at my direct deposit deposit in my online bank account. It was a 400$ drop. Per paycheck. That makes me queasy.
This is going to be very, very different.
Collected up my coupons and bought $14 worth of groceries that we use for $7.
ouch.

If we lost that much per pay period, we would have to move!

boomeyers - This was entirely voluntary, I can make it up with my savings and I haven't lost the money, it just shifted into the 403B, to later, perhaps turn into a tax refund in 09. I really am working for my tax writeoff!
