You Know You're On A Budget When...
1) You've stopped checking expiration dates and started going by expiration smells.
2) You plan outings that cost money (including 'spontaneous Saturday') ahead of time. If you planned your spontaneous day, does it still count?
3) You roll deep (in coupons).
4) The cashiers try to look busy when they see you headed their way.
5) Your Captain Crunch is Crisp Crunch. And it tastes every bit as good.
6) You haven't payed full price since back when you had a curfew. You've become more sensible now that Mommy and Daddy aren't bankrolling your life.
Well, a little more sensible.
7) You thought about moving closer to campus/work - for two seconds. Then you saw the rent.
8) You go to reunions and work events solely for the free food.
9) You've become Ms. Fix It. Duct tape is magical.
10) You're not scared of being robbed. Lock my door? What?
But guys, you're never broke enough for this. Please, let's have some boundaries somewhere.
Not poisoning dinner guests seems as good a place as any to draw the line.
Do you have one to add?
