Hey @justclickdiva - I'm glad to hear that you're feeling better, and that you're finding ways to manage your budget despite the challenges of rising insurance costs. It's unfortunate to learn that insurance costs have been skyrocketing... It's definitely important to find ways to cut costs elsewhere to accommodate for these increases. You've done amazingly, well done, you! 💫

And YES - it's great to hear that the "No-Buy" month helped you reassess your spending habits. Ditto here - especially when it came to unnecessary splashing. (Do I need x - or do I want x?) Sometimes it's, well, "easy" to fall into the trap of convenience... but being mindful of our spending can really make a difference...

Hello @actaylor. Thanks so much for your support. Yes, I consider my No-Buy Month a success, evening though I didn't reach my goal of saving 50% of my budget. The good thing was that my savings I did realize helped defray the cost of both insurance increases.

It's always a struggle it seems with "want" vs. "need". I'm trying to get totally to the point of only spending on must haves. And, I'm carrying this over to March and see how far I can go with it this year.

I appreciate your visit and engagement. It seems we are all in the same bucket sometimes battling the tug of the "do I really need this" indulgence.

Take care and have a wonderful rest of your week.
