I spent roughly $410 on Christmas presents
- $60 for my mom: Contributed to a GPS with my sistesr
- $55 for my dad: XM radio subscription
- $25 for my grandparents: Applebees giftcard
- $20 for a drinks for my friends
- $60 each for two of my sisters: Mostly clothes and make-up
- $40 for my boyfriends family (including shipping): A nice blanket and random treats
- $70 for the boyfriend: A nice zip up university sweatshirt he had coveted
- $30 for my sisters boyfriend: Sweatshirt
- $30 for my brother in law: Gift card to best buy
- $20 for my nephew: A baby bible and color book
I spent $555 (not including previously purchased $400 plane ticket) on new years eve vacation which lasted about five days. About $100 of it was due to me paying for my boyfriends share of things, since he is a poor grad student and I have a real job, and I wanted him to join us on all activities. Luckily, there was no hotel costs since we stayed in his apartment. (I do not currently live in the same city as him, hence the move.)
- $170 on food
- $125 on car rental and gas
- $200 on alochol and going out (yikes!), including a somewhat pricey New Years Eve
- $60 on general entertainment
Did I meet my year end goals? What are my new goals? I have to review whether or not I met my 2007 goals. I think I met some of them, but not all. I need to rework my 2008 goals and decide what I want to do financially this year.
The last thing to mention is today's small impulse buy. In a spur of the moment decision, I raced to Walmart and picked up a humidifier and cold medicine at about 11:00 pm tonight. Yes, I'm a little sick. The humidifier was only about $25, but I obviously did not buy quality, nor did I research the best deals. I also sort of dislike Walmart, but nothing else was open and I felt really crappy. Now, time for bed, as it is back to work tomorrow for my last few days.
