3 weeks!!!!

I just realized that yesterday made 3 weeks without buying anything new.

I have found something constructive to do with my time. I have been making a little bit of money writing articles on ehow.

Here's my article of things to do instead of shop!

I'm kind of going along with The Compact. You are allowed to buy toiletries and underclothing.

Top 6 things that you should not buy new

1. Cars Unlike houses, cars depreciate 15-20% during the first three years. 2. Books Most books are only read once and then put up on a shelf. You can find books at your local library or used books at garage sales, amazon.com, ebay.com, half.com, and bookfinder.com 3. Designer Clothing Ebay.com and your local thrift store is a good place to start with used designer clothing. 4. CD's and DVD's You can find great deals at garage sales, ebay, and craigslist. 5. Baby items, toys and games Take advantage of garage sales and craigslist this Summer. 6. Homes House usually appreciate with time. Right now is a good time to buy a used home that you can fix up.

My New Pyrex

I decided that I don't want to deal with plastic anymore. With all the articles that have been out about how certain plastics are dangerous, I decided to go back to glass. I told my mom that I was interested in getting some pyrex. Well guess what? She ended up offering me hers. Well one of her sets. She said she had 3 sets! It's not new, it's a green and yellow set. But it's new to me! I'll see if I can post a pic later.
