You guys are buying stuff?
Ah been there
Good luck! We’re on my second month. The first month was a mess as I panic bought some supplies for our home repairs before the talks about tariffs started, but this month we’re doing pretty well. (Our reasons are similar to yours plus maybe boycotting a few companies we used to shop with.)
I’m doing cash envelop budgeting along with and so far we’re under budget and have only had 3 days unplanned spending this month and none of it is out of budget. Pretty easy to do the two together with the goal of saving, boosting giving, or debt-paydown.
Happy to be an accountability buddy

Oh wow I love that!

Definitely feeling like I need to install linux on my mac though, perhaps as some sort of initiation?
I give them 2-3 months tops
