My New Motto!

I have to admit. I was an impulsive buyer. I saw something I wanted and had to have it. That type of instantaneous microwave generation way of thinking is the same thing that got me into debt once. Thus I realize that it has to stop. No more spending money frivolously on things which have no quality based upon an emotional impulse which will subside in an hour. The high of buying something on an outward appearance. My new motto on any and everything is ="If it can't be bought with a coupon, I don't need it!."

There are things that I would love to have that can not be bought with a coupon of course, like my own home and luxury car of my choice. With time and savings I will be able to have those things. Good things come to those who wait and are patient. So I realize that I'm going to get myself in order financially and live off half of my income.

Goal is to be done with student loans, car note, and miscellaneous debt by age 35.
So I have 3 years to go.

Ms. Frugal Deals - Remember if it can't be bought with a coupon or negotiated for less, you don't need it.

Keurig KCup Craigslist Catastrophe turns into love

Let me first say I have been wanting a Keurig since they came out. I don't drink a lot of coffee but I do love tea and hot chocolate. I was so fascinated by a demonstration that I was given at a Macy's during Christmas. Anywho I went on Craigslist to find one since I am frugal and don't like paying full price for anything. It retails at $149 at Walmart http://www.walmart.com/ip/Keurig-B60-Special-Edition-Brewer-and-Choice-of-K-Cups-Beverage-Bundle/20693072. Let me tell you I had my first bad experience on Craigslist. I saw an ad for a brand new Keurig for $50. Only paying 33% with no taxes seemed like a great win a savings of 67%. I met the lady and for some reason I should have known something was wrong. As soon as I opened the item upon getting it home it looked brand new. I should have known better when trying to plug it in I saw the cord was severely scorched to the core and the item didn't work. I was so mad. I won't go into detail but I did file a poli...
