Heres my goals
Debt:
* Pay off our Jeep (only one payment left!)
* Pay off one of adams loans (this is a far fetched goal but we are going to try! Adam has a job now and that is his only expense. I am also going to put $500 every 3 months towards it)

Spending:

* Eat out no more than once a week (this is gonna be tough because we live downtown and dont have an oven…)
* Use coupons as much as possible (I like cutting coupons and trading on afullcup.com and hotcouponworld.com so this will be easy)
* Watch our spending when we move into our house(I will work on a budget then)

Frugal:

* Try to get enough CFL lightbulbs to replace all of the lights when we move in..using coupons of course (we just got 5 for $3.99 at walgreens!)
* Keep entering giveaways for gift cards to home depot for our house
* Savings: Save up 6 months of emergency savings (at least $200 every paycheck…its working so far!)
* Save up a downpayment on a car brand new Hundia accent or Nissina versa (once we get the jeep paid off we will put that money toward another car)
