Spending freeze

I hope this post will be followed by many other in the near future. Inspired by others, some friends and I have decided to not spend any money for the month of February. We gassed up our cars, went grocery shopping and stocked up. (This excludes our months bills, mortgage, utilities, phones) Our goals include challenging our views on luxuries, embracing being uncomfortable and creatively save money.
First day: I saw a mouse at the house, which is no big deal usually, but i realized that the last mouse trap was connected to a dead mouse in the bottom of the garbage! I decided to dig it out rather than live with a mouse in the house for the next month. Hehe.

More to come...
