Money Diet Day 8 and the advantage of Doing It Yourself

Today we spent a little, but in the end it was a true money saver! The headlights on my car were out, so my husband bought the replacements and did the work himself. So, we had to spend a little, but saved a lot by doing it ourselves.

I spent $25 on my son's select soccer try outs. If he makes the team, well let's just say that I am relieved that the first payment for that activity will be due after my money diet is over.

Looking forward to a nice sunny day here in southeastern Wisconsin. I wish I could take a trip to Lake Michigan, but my job calls, so I will save the fun for later. Have a great day!
