Its on ya, I already spent $1.50 on coffee, lol. I decided I'm going to 'pay' myself $8 a day and on days I don't spend the whole thing I'll just save it for a day I may want to spend a bit more. Like I'm pretty sure I'm not spending more than another $1 (dutchie) today.

Also I'm using an app on my andriod called Driod Wallet is cool you can track your expenses and it really shows you where your money is going. I tracked for the 2nd half of sept. and I spent $500 (mainly on bud and food)

Between having to buy an iPad, new iPhones for me and the family, NBA 2K13, etc. I know I can't do it this month.

I used to mess with Mint but i'm not to comfortable exposing all my info online. Plus using debit/credit cards kills me. Seeing my money physically leave my wallet and handing it to someone else hurts alot more then a mindless swipe

this. Mint is my go too budgeting app simply because I use cards for 95% of my purchases. I haven't spent a dollar today but I'm going on vacation on Wednesday and I have a date next week so who knows. She's gonna get a bad first impression of me that's for sure lol

M.O.B. fam

Speaking on going out though, if anyone of you guys is in NYC and like cigars there are two nice spots I know of one on 71st and 1st called cigar inn and the other is on 2nd and 54th. When ever I go to either I never spend over $20 and I'm usually there for like 2-3 hrs especially if I'm with someone. Cost friendly suggestions :smokin
 
i think i got a bonafide headstart cuz i got groceries in my fridge for a solid week before the competition started.

$245 left...

:pimp: :pimp:
