Well as far as the Compact goes we are pretty much status quo... Still haven't spent any more money... yay! I've found that avoiding the stores that I have "problems" with, really decreases my impulse shopping... good to know! I even ran to Walmart the other day to grab some stuff and stuck to the list. Granted it takes a lot for me not even to wander through the kids clothes and clearance sections but I did it! (I know, baby steps right!)
I am still on a mission for Fisher Price Farm Animals... have a couple leads. The second hand stores in town have none, although thier stock turns over quite a bit so I should keep checking. I'm not sure how people have the patience or the time to find things online or in second hand stores. It's just so easy to run to the store and grab it. This is teaching me to be patient! Farm animals are not an emergency need it now item so I'll wait a little longer before having my mom mail me the ones we have at her house!
I haven't even added anything to my "think I want it" list.
So doing this just for one month is a little hard since pretty much anything can be delayed for a month. If there was something I want or need, I could just postpone it for the month but I oddly enough haven't really had anything....Seriously weird!
So my new plan??? Extend the compact through April! I'm not so sure that Jared will be on board with the plan as frisbee season is starting and I'm sure he'll need some new ones. So there may have to be a frisbees don't count clause or he'll blow our stash pretty easily! We'll have to see. Plus this will give me a little more time to figure things out. And it will include a holiday as well!
