I don't really think I have anything like that. I have lived on pennies for most of my life and know I can do it again if need be.

Same, can't think of anything I wouldn't give up, although of course it's more fun to be with than without.

So if you had no money for food you would still insist on a mani/pedi?

Money being tight vs no money for food…there’s a difference.

Lol I cannot relate to this at all.
I'm trying to just pay the bills.
I go for a walk daily and spend time with friends (both free!)

I'm a SAHM with littles and I wont give up my cleaning help.
I also spend a lot on a personal trainer ( So I could be and feel fit after many babies BH, Also helps my mental health)
I would but takeout often when not mangaing vs. stressing myself out and being more available for my kids.
I buy myself new clothes, tichels, lipsticks and lotions from time to time to feel good with myself.
But I did decide to keep my 2 yr old home vs spending a ton on playgroup.
I guess you could say everybody proritizes according to their needs.

What I am ready to give up:
New clothing for myself
Kids buy only necessities if they outgrow and didn’t get hand me downs.
Not upkeeping my house in any way as in painting, replacing broken items…
Not buying takeout, and not going out to eat.

But not everyone is operating with as much disposable income and time to spend it.

What about you? |
can you get a part time job that covers the cost of the playgroup? even if its just twice a week it would probably cover the cost. then the other days when she is out, you can have time to yourself

Monthly mani
I work hard and that’s my thing I do for me. There are other things I’ll do if we have available funds such as a pedi as well or a massage but mani is a must.
