Thanks. Im gonna have a budget starting when I get paid next week. Should have had one in the beginning but I havnt collected for a while and got caught up in the ROC moment :-) In reply to rocky's comment, Before I went out shopping all the bills were paid its not like I went crazy before paying what was needed. I always make sure everything is good before we shop. Im not a moron...most of the time. heh.

Have a reserve. I usually give myself a grace of 50-100 on stuff i want. I also plan ahead. I've factored into that 50-100, Gen Hawk, paratrooper,commando viper. when that is used up im done till i can save up a little more for the next time. Anything i dont initially spend gets carried over. So just alot yourself some"play money". Also stuff you dont want or cant keep take back to the store or sell it. you'll feel better knowin that you got some of your money back.

I have a Joe budget that is free money, no bills, and still have some set aside for "fun".
Basically, I just buy a little at a time. I don't go blowing it all in one day. So I spread it out between paychecks. Makes it look like I'm spending more then I am and buying more.

Alright your married and trying to pay bills. How you still buy the ones you want without breaking the bank and getting your wife ticked off with you? I bought some today but felt guilty after (could be a problem). I did leave paris pursuit baroness at the store though but did grab flash, eel, crimson viper, and elite viper. How you guys do it? thanks.

One way I choose to look at it is that every day I opt to pack a lunch at work rather than going out pays for at least one Joe. |

i would set 40 bucks aside from each paycheck. since my boss is letting me go monday or at least that seems to be the case my joe buying might turn into joe selling.

I grab OT when I can at work. I get $50 a check plus anything over our bill and expenses budget from my check for Joes and other pursuits. I tell my wife about anything I spend.

Likke I have stated many times in many threads,these things are not that expensive. If you are in a finacial state where you have to 2nd guess a 20 or 30 dollar purchase or have the need to return or sell such items,you shouldnt have been buying them in the 1st place.
