Reprise of a post

October 16th, 2008 at 05:47 am

Saving log - $3 tip box
Spending log - $3 coffee, muffin + $7 lunch + $8 groceries

Had a meeting before work, so I bought a coffee and muffin. Had lunch at Uwajimaya, where everything was 10% off, in honor of their 80th anniversary. Bought yogurt at the grocery store on the way home, talked with the woman who was selling Real Change out front, bought the Real Change, then also bought a chicken salad sandwich for her on the way out. We'll be buying sandwiches for each other before this recession is through.

Speaking of that, with all that is going on and with the new and returning folks reading the blogs, I want to reprise a post from March. I don't know whether it bothers folks or comforts folks to know that all the things they are seeing with the slowdown and the stock crash are really well-worn paths. Its basic, sure, because we've trod on this road before.

    Thanks for sharing. My best friend called me last night to say that she had paid off three credit cards with her bigger paycheck from a new job. I said that was great, but she better start an EF for herself in the event that she loses her job. She laughed and said, "I've lived on my credit cards before so I can always do that." Hmmm ...
