Leave Your Purse At Home

With the economy the way it is these days... everyone is looking for ways to save money.  I have tried gleaning $10 from this bill or $5 from that bill or "cutting corners" and really, none of them worked.  I always found a way to use that money before I could get it into savings.  But now, I've discovered a full proof way of saving money.  Leave your money at home.

This method of saving had made it's appearance in my life many, many times... but I was on the wrong end of it.  You see... it goes like this.  My kids and I would decide to go shopping.  When we would get to the part of paying, my kids had forgotten their wallet.  This would happen over and over again.  Time to check out... oh she didn't bring her purse.  Now I know what to do!

When we go shopping, I'm not bringing it.  No purse means no wallet, no cash, no checks, no credit cards.  I can't buy anything!  It works fantastically!  It also helps me from purchasing things I don't really need.  Sure it's cute at the mall, but by the time I get home, eh... I can do without it.  If it's something I can't stop thinking about, well then, I go back... alone.... or with only the correct amount of cash to pay for the item.

There is one flaw... traveling.  My girls and I are planning a trip to L.A.  I realize that leaving my purse at home won't work, so I'm thinking I may need a bankruptcy attorney los angeles.  Maybe I bring the purse, and hide the credit cards!
