Today, I got up, went to the Farmer's Market $5.25 spent for salad stuff. Then I returned some books/movies to the library. I was expecting a $0.25 fine, but the person who returned the dvd to the system made an error and I ended up with no fee My lucky day.
I then went to the Grocery store where I spent $4.48. I picked up a movie at Redbox, $1.02 and headed home.
I have eaten breakfast, lunch and soon to be dinner at home. I had someone come pick up a cookie press that I had put up on Craiglist - $10.00 paid by a very excited pre-teen girl, LOL.
I've been doing a bunch of cleaning and laundry. And then I spent 4 hours dealing with a nasty virus on my computer. I purchased an anti-virus package, but they couldnt help me, so I cancelled the package (and will get a refund), then actually found a free program (from a reputable site) that was able to fix the problem. Yay Took a lot of time and patience, but my computer is working again!
Today has been great weather - I've had the windows open and ceiling fans on. I'll definitely take the electric savings!
All in all, a frugal day. I had a very social night last night. Took some beer to a friends house for a game night. We got a little rowdy So tonight, I'm having a movie night in.
My total Craigslist profit has been $40.00 for 3 items sold. A lamp $5.00, a calculator $25.00, and the cookie press $10.00. Woohoo
Nice Weather for a Saturday
