How much money have you spent today?

I ask this because I have spent nothing today. Exactly £0.00. I'm not sure this has ever happened to me. I don't smoke, really, any more, and that helps. Even on Christmas Day, I always manage to nip out for something, but not today - mostly because I am feeling quite skint and nice people made me soups.

Anyway, how much are you yourself spending today? Please itemise.

Eyeball Kicks (Eyeball Kicks), Monday, 6 November 2006 23:16 (eighteen years ago)

buck and a quarter on a diet coke from the machine at work. I was getting the nods after lunch and needed some caffeine.

It's the lazy and immoral way to become super hip. (Austin, Still), Monday, 6 November 2006 23:18 (eighteen years ago)

$1.90 for coffee + $1 tip

hstencil (hstencil), Monday, 6 November 2006 23:18 (eighteen years ago)

eBay listings: approximately $16.00

derekerdman (Derek Erdmany), Monday, 6 November 2006 23:19 (eighteen years ago)

I go days without spending money. I still have twenties with the small Jackson portrait.

Billy Dods (Billy Dods), Monday, 6 November 2006 23:21 (eighteen years ago)

about $18 on coffee, a bagel, some orange juice, and lunch. too much.

kyle (akmonday), Monday, 6 November 2006 23:21 (eighteen years ago)

$3.00 for an MTA day pass (good for train and bus)
$11.82 for lunch (Chicken Club sandwich) and an iced coffee. I was lazy over the weekend and didn't get a chance to stock up on food to take to work.

Elvis Telecom (Chris Barrus), Monday, 6 November 2006 23:23 (eighteen years ago)

my ATM card stopped working this past weekend and i had close to no money on me from friday night until about noon today. i had to go out to my bank in pasadena to order a new card and cash a check. so:

DASH bus from school to 7th/metro red line station = 25 cents
red line ride to union station = free (honor system)
gold line ride to memorial park station = free
two tacos and a soda @ king taco = $4 and change
gold line ride back to union station = free
DASH bus to "south park" district = 25 cents
37 bus that dropped me off on my block = $1.25 (i splurged)

the starbucks in the forbidden city (Jody Beth Rosen), Monday, 6 November 2006 23:24 (eighteen years ago)

Breakfast: $4.28
Used book store: 1.89
Copy shop: $117.95
Post office: $118.22
Grocery store: 13.82

That should do it for the day. The copy shop and P.O. were expenses that happen 6x/year, not an everyday kind of thing.

Django Blowhardt (Rock Hardy), Monday, 6 November 2006 23:25 (eighteen years ago)

nothing, because my husband paid for lunch.

patita (patita), Monday, 6 November 2006 23:38 (eighteen years ago)

About $12

gabbneb (gabbneb), Monday, 6 November 2006 23:42 (eighteen years ago)

$3 for grilled cheez & confetti jello stuff from break truck @ 10:30 am
$3.25 for In-n-Out cheezburger & med. diet coke after picking up truckload of coworkers @ 2 pm.

That's probably it for the day; I've got plenty of groceries to cook up for dinner tonight.

Jaq (Jaq), Monday, 6 November 2006 23:45 (eighteen years ago)

$0, because I'm trying to make the money I have right now last until Friday. I've been overspending lately.

Beth S. (Ex Leon), Monday, 6 November 2006 23:48 (eighteen years ago)

Today will mark the second straight day spending $0. Which is fine, after spending $93 Saturday on books, cds, two tickets to Marie Antoinette, and a haircut.

jonviachicago (jonviachicago), Monday, 6 November 2006 23:53 (eighteen years ago)

Well, http://www.eyeballkicks.com/images/ournoticeboard_04.gif ,

I spent $9.82 on Otto Klemperer's 1964 recording of Die Zauberflöte and, let me tell you, I am disappointed. This is no Smurfs.

the Adversary (but, still, a friend of yours) (Uri Frendimein), Monday, 6 November 2006 23:54 (eighteen years ago)

$8 on a Greek salad with grilled chicken for lunch.

Party Time Country Female (pullapartgirl), Monday, 6 November 2006 23:57 (eighteen years ago)

The Android Cat (Dan Perry), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 00:29 (eighteen years ago)

£4 on hummus lunch
£33.48 on two CDs and a book from Amazon
£2.15 on coffee
£3.44 on halloumi and V8

On the positive side, I made £9 playing poker, so overall I am £34 worse off than yesterday. NB I very nearly bought plane tickets today which would have changed things a bit.

=== temporary username === (Mark C), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 00:29 (eighteen years ago)

$5 for lunch (sammich)
$10 for dinner (Qdoba)
$35 on four CDs at Tower closing sale
$16 for three magazines at Border's
$6 ticket to American Hardcore, $3 bottle of water

milo z (mlp), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 00:37 (eighteen years ago)

- $3.00 for the ticket from South Pasadena to Pershing Sq. I realize that this is mostly unnessecary, as I have only been asked for my pass four times in the five months I've been here, but I ehar the fine is $250, which is a lot more than $3.
- $3.00 for a smoothie downtown.

I still feel guilty. Too much money for an underemployed dude.

B.L.A.M. (Big Loud Mountain Ape), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 00:37 (eighteen years ago)

$4 for lunch (Indian food from the trucks by my university)
$5 for used copy of 400 Degreez

31g (31g), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 00:41 (eighteen years ago)

$0, but a $10.50 case of black label is in my immediate future.

John Justen will insert a ship in your cat for no additional fee (johnjusten), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 00:51 (eighteen years ago)

I spend too much, argh.

emil.y (emil.y), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 01:51 (eighteen years ago)

I shall not be spending anything today, but yesterday's retail therapy more than makes up for this (in Aussie dollars, which is like 5 cents in US currency):

- 3 short-sleeved tops, 1 on sale - $79
- 2 purses on sale, non-leather - $60
- 2 necklaces for my mum - $23
- 2 chuppa-chups, 1 strawberry & cream, 1 cola - 60 cents

Grand total of $162.60

salexandra (salexander), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 02:11 (eighteen years ago)

Oh, I forgot - $0.50 for a newspaper.

Party Time Country Female (pullapartgirl), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 02:13 (eighteen years ago)

Maria (Maria), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 02:18 (eighteen years ago)

rems (x Jeremy), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 03:14 (eighteen years ago)

$29 for gas
$5.99 for a Webb Pierce cd(ok but kind of a letdown, it's from recordings he made in the 70's, and it's coming off the ledger when I return it tomorrow)
$25.99 for The Carter Family: 1927-1934. 5 discs!!!

tremendoid (tremendoid), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 03:48 (eighteen years ago)

Is this because of that money feature in NYMag? I was flabbergasted at what some of those people spend money on in a day.

$6.00 - sandwich for lunch
$3.00 - machiatto
$30.00 - Hebrew tutor

I'm pretty sure that was it

A-ron Hubbard (Hurting), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 03:54 (eighteen years ago)

$11.00 - gas and oil. $6.00 oil because my SO's car has an oil leak and i needed to drive his car to school because my car's left tailight is out. Somehow this makes sense, as opposed to fixing the problems.
$1.49 for a diet coke - from a convenience store - which sent me into shock because i still think sodas are only going to cost a buck.
$5.69 for cigarettes.
It's funny (both ha-ha and weird) when twenty dollar bills take flight from your wallet and leave you with one bill and a few coins.
I know, the price of the cigs could have bought me a nice...ceaser salad at at a cafe, or what not.
Farewell, my little twenty dollar bill/friend.
I hardly knew ye.

aimurchie (aimurchie), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 04:12 (eighteen years ago)

Free NY Times from my dorm
Free coffee from the dining hall (yea styrofoam cups!)
I don't think I spent a goddamn thing today.

less-than three's Christiane F. (drowned in milk), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 04:14 (eighteen years ago)

About $68 on new running shoes
$22 on a haircut
$10 on hand lotion that a guy in the mall convinced me to buy
$58 on groceries

So $158? Not a typical day by any stretch. I do all my shopping in one go since it's a bit of a bike ride to get out to where the shops are.

Sundar (sundar), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 04:16 (eighteen years ago)

It's funny (both ha-ha and weird) when twenty dollar bills take flight from your wallet and leave you with one bill and a few coins.

I don't remember where I read this, but apparently crisp $20 bills used to be known slangily as "yuppie food coupons" - this was when ATMs were not as widely used, I guess, and the joke was about the fact that yuppies were always stuck splitting the bill where no one had anything but 20s fresh from the ATM.

A-ron Hubbard (Hurting), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 04:19 (eighteen years ago)

If this had been a regular weekday I'd have spent about $15 on lunch and tram money but its a public holiday today, so:

$12.10 on a pack of smokes. Thats all.

Trayce (trayce), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 04:32 (eighteen years ago)

For one pack?!

Django Blowhardt (Rock Hardy), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 04:39 (eighteen years ago)

jhoshea megafauna (scoopsnoodle), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 05:16 (eighteen years ago)

$32 eBay item
$100 food shopping (including $40 worth of blue eye cod)

Andrew (enneff), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 05:20 (eighteen years ago)

For one pack? Yeah. Dont forget our weaker dollar; plus that was a pack of 30, plus smokes here are taxed up the wazoo, like that stops anyone. I can get them for $10 if I look around, I'm lazy tho.

Trayce (trayce), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 05:25 (eighteen years ago)

including $40 worth of blue eye cod

Fuck seafood's expensive now :( I love atlantic salmon but I cant buy it like I would chops or chicken, so annoying.

Smegma Pi (plsmith), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 05:51 (eighteen years ago)

I like the jingle jangle of the coins in my pocket. I also have to have the coins to pay for parking (often), but i like spending the disrespected coins - the pennies, the nickels, the dimes - in many service-for-need negotiations.
Ergo, i like to spend pennies. To the annoyance of many a cashier, oh well. Sorry! i try to count them out asap!

aimurchie (aimurchie), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 06:04 (eighteen years ago)

$4 for subway to and from work
$9 for delivery order from burritoville (vegetarian sloppy joe, inna wrap)
i'm pretty sure that's it. but it's misleading, because for breakfast i had food in the house that was bought in grocery bills earlier in the week, and now i'm drinking wine i paid for two days ago.

gypsy mothra (gypsy mothra), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 06:21 (eighteen years ago)

$0.00

A. Lingbert (A. Lingbert), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 07:06 (eighteen years ago)

Today might be a cheap one. Have pub plans, but also still have pub quiz winning vouchers to exchange for free beer. Have brother coming to stay overnight, so that's got to be worth him paying for dinner. Hurrah!

ailsa (ailsa), Friday, 17 November 2006 09:32 (eighteen years ago)

(actually Celtic are taking that £28 they gave me the other day back off me again today, but I'm not counting that)

ailsa (ailsa), Friday, 17 November 2006 09:36 (eighteen years ago)

I spent almost ten euros on coke (one liter), schweppes tonic can and several pots of baby food.

Also one euro and a half on PLASTICKY knitting yarn. I am completely hooked. Can't stop buying things knitrelated. :-)

Nathalie (stevie nixed), Friday, 17 November 2006 14:13 (eighteen years ago)

addendum: £18.22 on the two aforementioned books from amazon.

(thinks about writing that cheque to his building society just to trump madchen. does moving money to a different account qualify as 'spent'?)

Koogy Yonderboy (koogs), Friday, 17 November 2006 14:14 (eighteen years ago)

addendum2: and £11.55 for yesterday's boomkat order. still, will have some interesting post on monday morning.

Maria (Maria), Saturday, 18 November 2006 22:16 (eighteen years ago)

I'm in Belltown to see friends who I hadn't seen in months, so I've bought way too much food. Dinner last night at Black Bottle ($20ish), breakfast I bought a brioche at Le Panier (about $8) to make french toast at a friend's. Lunch from La Vita e Bella ($12), then we bought James Bond tickets for the Cinerama, and I bought a new fleece jacket at Patagonia (too $$$) and some fruit at Pike Place market (yay, $2). So I spent too much, but at least I squished in a lot of my favorite things to do here. and the $&#* expensive plane ticket to come here for 2 days: $550

lyra (lyra), Sunday, 19 November 2006 01:55 (eighteen years ago)

Today: Stayed in, fruitlessly agonized over idea for next film, to be shot in two weeks.

Yesterday: a high-spending day. £21 on petrol, £2.20 on a drink in a pub, £1 contribution to the funds of the meeting I was at in said pub, £8.20 for a pizza for me and a friend, £26 to get me and the friend into our favourite club, £1.40 on drinks whilst I was there.

I should also have spent £30-something on prepay toll tickets, because I'm all out now, but I didn't have time to stop for some.

Forest Pines (ForestPines), Sunday, 19 November 2006 11:14 (eighteen years ago)

Bloody hell, checking the price, a book of toll tickets would have been £48.60. I'm glad I didn't get any!

(for 20, as opposed to £2.70 per trip without a ticket)

Forest Pines (ForestPines), Sunday, 19 November 2006 11:25 (eighteen years ago)

£1 on a 95p bus fare. Again.

accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Thursday, 18 January 2007 13:59 (eighteen years ago)

I've spent no money since Monday, but that will change tonight, as it is shoegazing and probably dinner.

Shoes and Shoegazeability (kate), Thursday, 18 January 2007 14:00 (eighteen years ago)

£2 on parking, and £113 on some new headphones, most of which I will get back by selling some other headphones.

Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Thursday, 18 January 2007 14:07 (eighteen years ago)

Argh, wait, I forgot - I spent £27.50 or whatever on a travelcard this morning.

Shoes and Shoegazeability (kate), Thursday, 18 January 2007 14:08 (eighteen years ago)

not counting things like how much electricity or water i've used and based solely on cash spent- $2.50 for coffee and a donut from the bus station.

chicago kevin (chicago kevin), Thursday, 18 January 2007 14:11 (eighteen years ago)

biggest-spending month ever (but only about £3.10 today)

vita susicivus (blueski), Thursday, 18 January 2007 14:13 (eighteen years ago)

£1 on a 95p bus fare (I got away with substituting 4 kronor for 40p on Tuesday, though). I predict that the chocolate machine at work will recive 45 of my hard-earned pence before the day is out.

Mädchen (Madchen), Thursday, 18 January 2007 14:14 (eighteen years ago)

45? scandalous. i paid 40 for my Yorkie.

vita susicivus (blueski), Thursday, 18 January 2007 14:15 (eighteen years ago)

I hoped this thread wouldn't be revived! The GUILT!

Pack of raspberries and banana from the fruit stall: £1.75
3 seed roll = 37p
croissant = 72p
edamame bean salad = 2.09

THUS: £4.93

£113 on HEADPHONES?! Gibber!

xpost: I think some cash is going to be reserved for a Twix before Finnish class.

Bhumibol Adulyadej (Lucretia My Reflection), Thursday, 18 January 2007 14:15 (eighteen years ago)

Hello, Starry!!

Finnish class - wow!

Dr.C (Dr.C), Thursday, 18 January 2007 14:23 (eighteen years ago)

after spending most of 2006 with just enough money to feed myself i can now live on nothing. so far this week i have spent £0.00p despite being rich as fuck (compared to last year).

however, this will all change on friday when i leave work and get mega drunk.

all in all, i think being poor for year has killed off my spending spree habit, in the olden days i couldn't leave a room without spending money.

george bob (george bob), Thursday, 18 January 2007 14:24 (eighteen years ago)

what headphone did you buy???

im looking for some new headphones in that price range...

george bob (george bob), Thursday, 18 January 2007 14:25 (eighteen years ago)

I ordered some AKG K601s. They're normally nearer £160, but are pretty cheap from thomann.de.

Sick Mouthy (Nick Southall), Thursday, 18 January 2007 14:26 (eighteen years ago)

Finnish class was paid for before xmas = £65 for the privilege of making strange sounds come out of your mouth which will be understood by people in a country I will probably never end up visiting at this rate - and Finns don't really care to talk much ANYWAY! Ridiculous!

Bhumibol Adulyadej (Lucretia My Reflection), Thursday, 18 January 2007 14:27 (eighteen years ago)

You should join my knitting class! Even though it's not a language class, everyone babbles away anyway! Sometimes people SHOUT and CRY. heh

Someone has to teach me not to spend money. I can't manage to go a day without spending money. I tend to buy food for the two days and, even so, I always seem to need something more (the second day). Today? Hmm, let's see... About four euros on sausages (myum myum) and about 1,40 euros on candy bars. Not bad for me. *pats self on shoulder* Good girl. (That said, I'll probably need to go buy some food for Ophelia and MORE CANDY on *moi*).

Nathalie (stevie nixed), Thursday, 18 January 2007 14:28 (eighteen years ago)

oh, nick.

the original hauntology blogging crew (Enrique), Thursday, 18 January 2007 14:29 (eighteen years ago)

one day you will get into hornby, and i don't mean nick.

Starry - my friend says that if you do get to Finland, you'll find that they all speak perfect English and all the TV is in English, anyway...

Sick Mouthy (Nick Southall), Thursday, 18 January 2007 15:47 (eighteen years ago)

Nothing yet -- I'm barely up out of bed.

do i have to draw you a diaphragm (Rock Hardy), Thursday, 18 January 2007 15:50 (eighteen years ago)

Haha Nick - I'm learning the most pointless language dot dot dot evah, heh ho! It's still interesting, even if it means I have to start hanging out on Lordi messageboards to use it. Actually some advanced knowledge of Finnish might help me with Eurovision... but probably not! CHIZ!

Bhumibol Adulyadej (Lucretia My Reflection), Thursday, 18 January 2007 15:55 (eighteen years ago)

That, or obsessive LOTR messageboards where they actually talk to one another in Elvish... ;-)

Shoes and Shoegazeability (kate), Thursday, 18 January 2007 15:57 (eighteen years ago)

$3 on coffee and a croissant.

hstencil (hstencil), Thursday, 18 January 2007 15:58 (eighteen years ago)

I did it, I spent 45p on a Crunchie bar.

jennyjennyjenny (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 18 January 2007 16:05 (eighteen years ago)

hum. 3€ on a sandwich so far. but I will spend around 40€ more before I go to bed on champagne, cigarettes etc (I'm invited to a party).
I'm depressed by my inability to not spend money...
