err…resolution?

Posted on Jan 03, 2009 under General, rant | 4 Comments

With recession looming in the minds of everyone, I thought I better cut back on some expenditures and save some money.  Been reading in the papers every day about lay-offs and people finding it hard to make ends meet *sigh*  I must really change my spending habits. Therefore, I have decided to write down a list of things that I should do in 2009. something like a New Year Resolution ;)   Here it goes :-

i)  I ought to make less trip to Starbucks.  This means I will be drinking less Java Chip Frapuccino. *wawawawawawawa*

2) Only go to the mall once a week.  Less visit means less impulsive buying. Retail therapy is important to me.  I hope I won’t have withdrawal symptoms later on *wawawawawawawa*

3)  Buy less clothing for Ashley as she already has a wardrobe full of clothes.

4)  Stop buying bento stuff because I hardly make bentos :D

5) I must make comparison when I do my grocery shopping. 

6)  I ought to buy more house brands for the household items as they are a lot cheaper. 

Ok, so that’s my list for now.  I certainly hope I can do all that.  Time to fasten our seatbelts (rear passengers too) as 2009 is going to be a bumpy ride.  Wish me luck!
