July Frugals

[Yppej]

My July was spendy. I went significantly over budget prepaying for heating oil, paying real estate taxes due both 8/1 and 11/1 (I like to prepay expenses as part of my emergency fund as it were), and last and definitely least in terms of cost helping DS with back to school clothes.

Yppej: Yes, property taxes for 8/1 were a factor and an unexpected car repair. There were also some expenditures that were avoidable though, and at some point, I seem to have developed an "oh what the hell" mindset. That mindset is banished for August!
