No. I delayed spending due to lack of income. Now I'm having a hard time not wanting to spend, due to sudden income. I'm all happy and excited, and I'm wondering if there's a name for this phenomenon.

Gas prices are eating into my budget. I have to shop at the discount grocery stores to save money, and am cutting wherever I can.

I'm mostly pretty cheap already, so I haven't changed that much.

Plus, I'm a fabulously successful website entrepreneur... dot com gazillionaire... I fart gold bars. Yes, filling the tank in my Sherman tank has required that I fart more than I've needed to in the past, but this really isn't a problem for me since I seem to have an unlimited supply of gas inside of me.

I keep putting off getting new music CDs lately, and until I got my stimulus check, put off buying a badly needed pair of pants and pair of socks. I'm also more careful when buying food and drink these days - trying to cut down on my impulse spending. I'll even be cutting down spending at garage sales more. I never go out to eat anymore either.

Not really. I delay any spending anyway, I never buy anything on impulse and if I see something I like or need, I'll go home and check prices elsewhere first.

Yes. Groceries are a bit far and fewer. Vacations, not even a work vacation is doable. It isn't the economy as much as the renter who dry fudgeed me for close to $3 grand.

No, not at all, but I don't spend much money other than paying my bills, buying groceries and supporting my Church. God has truly blessed me financially among many other ways and I'm able to save a lot of money each month. I've been helping several people in my Church that are going through some tough times.

Hah. I never buy music CDs, DVDs, consider buying clothes a total waste of money, only buy socks when they get too many holes in them or I can't find matching ones, never buy stuff at garage sales.

But - ALL our meals are eaten out from take-out places. We never cook. Well, my wife might eat oatmeal for breakfast and a sandwich for lunch. I eat donuts/coffee or McDonalds every morning, don't eat lunch, and dinner is from KFC, Subway, Mountain Mikes' pizza, Taco Bell, McDonald's or Chinese. That's it, day after day, week after week.

Our stovetop and oven get used twice a year - Thanksgiving and Christmas. The microwave on the other hand is used many times a day.
