The 30 Day Challenge
« on: March 08, 2012, 05:14:35 AM »
Yesterday I was deeply saddened and disturbed when PayPal revealed that I was only $800 from reaching a total of spending $5000 in a twelve month period. I've spent that money on loads of stuff, particularly ponies and Monster High. Bad, BAD tuney!

As such, I've decided to take a thirty day vow of abstinence in April. No more eBay browsing, no more participating in Monster High threads, no more stalking etsy. Thirty days of saver's bliss. But I can't do it alone. I'm going to need your support, and I'm going to need fellow savers to band with me!

So who wants to join my 30 Day Challenge in April? It means no buying ponies, customs, dolls, or any collectibles. One month! Imagine how much I could save! Imagine how much money YOU'LL save!

P.S. If you plan to enlist, say so, and I'll update this post to include the names of all challenge participants.

Count me in, I have no discipline with money. It'll be good to have people to do it with.

To be fair ponies are seriously addictive, my mum and I are actually worried about me , I spent £400 in one month and now I only buy a pony every two months, I am glad to be joining though, it doesn't bother me too much not to have a new pony every day now because my wardrobe has seriously suffered so I am also saving up for some new clothes now :)
I support this cause hugely! :D xxx

Good luck with your challenge Tuneful. :)


I'll give it a go too, though I'd be most likely to break and buy something for my daughters during that time. :yikes:

This is a great idea Tuney. Good for you! I think I might join. I've got to save up for moving in a couple months... and if it's only for April I can buy MH dolls again when Rochelle comes out in May!! So yes, count me in. I'll need lots of moral support though!! Temptation is everywhere.

I won't be joining the challenge because I don't feel I've overspent my budget, but I wish everyone the BEST of luck! ♥
