My “No-Spend” challenge begins in 4 short days!! Anyone else want to join in to save some $$ towards a goal? My goal is to beef up our emergency Fund by $1000! If you join in, i’ll link you up on my “no-spend” page so we can encourage each other throughout the month! If you have posted on your blog about it, please link me up, and if you haven’t, I’d love to read what your goals & rules are for January! So please make a post & link me up so I can read & cheer you on! 
Remember, its YOUR challenge, so YOU make your own rules, if you want to challenge yourself to cut your budget in 1/2 for the month, or challenge yourself to not spend money on coffees & eating out, or simply to save a little extra cash each week, that’s awesome! Post about it & join in!

I’m excited to get started with my no-spend challenge & with the way things are going this month I *may* have some left over budget money to fall back on if we stay under budget over the next week! Currently we’re looking at spending $21/day to cover absolutely *everything* for six people! I’ll be posting a bit more on what we’re starting the month with after I take inventory.
Well, this is just a short post for now! I need to get my camera & lenses ready as i’m off for another photo-shoot this afternoon! I’ll share a couple shots later on! Enjoy your day!

I’M IN!!!!
Ok, I’m in too!
I’m in! I’ll post it up later… my challenge is going to be to spend as little as possible on food/household and I will go back to my spending log which will tell the tale every single day. So I can be up for public accolades or embarrassment, as the case may be.
I’m in too as soon as we get back from vacation – so I’m starting 1/4.
I’m in! I need to kick start (re-start) our journey to financial freedom. And this sounds like the perfect way to start! I’ll post it up shortly.
I will join. Not promising to be totally perfect though:)
I will do my best to avoid non essential spending. This will be a first!!
Okay I am in, I need to up the savings also and pay off a few small medical bills left from Hubby.
I’m in! My goal is to save $600 bucks next month to replace the hit my e-fund received when I bought my new car. I’m also hoping to start working on my travel fund!:D
I’m in too! I’ll be posting about it January 2 on my Somerset Lane blog (and linking back to you). I’m trying to find out what my own rules will be as I still have to big family birthdays coming up in January.
I’m in most of the way. Can’t miss out on any SUPER sales for next years Christmas list but I need to get back to savings again, have some very lofty goals for 2012. Biggest problem is my better 1/2 he loves to see the saving build up but doesn’t understand the leaky faucet drains extra savings we could have. Wonder if a 2×4 would be any help?
I have to pass for January, but I think I may try it in March. Good Luck!
Yup – I’m in:) I’d like to get my EF up to $2000 – I’ll post about it tomorrow.
Awesome!!! Misery loves company! Er.. Uh… I mean, we’re all in together!!
lol! I’ll link everyone up on my no-spend challenge page!
O sister we are in all the way. It’s go time!
I’m in!
We are in…gotta save up that money for the car!!
Me too!
I’m in although this is pretty much how we live so I will have to get creative in how I can not spend any further! LOL I will do a post on it and link up with you!
I’m in too!
Count me in! Much needed after December.
As you know, I’m in..but with a couple of caveats…daughter’s sweet 16th birthday is January 5th…
and I promised a hotel spa day. Yikes! I think I can swing it anyway, because I have an extra $250 from overtime in December…we shall see…
I’ll post my personal criteria on the 31st and link up to you!
!
I am totally in!!!
I posted about your challenge with a link to you yesterday. Looking forward to it!
I’m in….no idea the how’s or whats so I hope to get some inspiration from y’all. I know we can eat from from freezer/pantry, I’ll get gas tomorrow and that should take me through the month. I know we won’t be eating out, I also know we need to save for upcoming medical expenses.
I’m still in…
I’m in! It’s so much harder than it sounds. I had a heckuvah time at the mall today sticking with xmas gift cards only.
