Saturday Updates

February 16th, 2019 at 01:01 pm

Just cashed out 27.65 in Ibotta bucks. I’ll be adding this to the credit card 💳

Though today is the last day in the week, I reviewed my finances anyway, up until today. Out side of extra on the CC, I paid out $745.11 this week.

* $370 HOA, this covers up to April
* $255 Sorority membership (sinking fund for this)
* $39 gas ⛽️
* $26.84 dining out, budget for this in my fun category but it bothers me that I spent this much. Mostly due to buying breakfast
* $22.82 groceries
* $22.59 household items 🧹. Went over budget this week. I needed a fogger ($10) my car, I have bugs 🐜.
* $6.52 personal car, much cheaper at home. I’d bought a few hair care items
* $2.34 in sales tax.

Other news, my cabinets are starting to wobble. I knew when I bought the place that they were going. I did start a house fund for repairs, I figured by next year I can replace them. To purchase from Home Depot and install myself ( I know someone who will install for free) it’s about $2,500. I feel good with saving for what I need. I can say this, until they fall off the hinge, I won’t replace.

Found a tenant for the other house. $850 a month, so I’ll take $450 a month, that’s $150 each between my two other siblings, and sock away the rest. I manage the place for them. This money is going straight to the CC.

    You can't tighten the screws that hold the cabinet to the wall or the door to the frame? A handyman could even screw them into another area on the wall or the cabinet if it's the door. Cabinets are expensive! If it were me I try the least expensive solution while I was in debt to avoid that big expense.

    Oh no, I’m not buying any anytime soon. I’ve screwed one together. I think they’ll last a while, I’m just thinking about the what if’s. One of the neighbors threw out one and I took the drawer. I wasn’t thinking to get all the doors smh. No new purchase until the CC is gone
