As far as the water and stuff goes, that is paid for whether I use it or not with the condo fees, so the day the HOA fee goes out the door is the day I spent to use it. Surely you don't think you've spent money on your computer on the days you turn it on? It's all a sunk cost. Sistah Ant/Vixen - No Spend Day is actually a corruption of Buy Nothing Day from AdBusters. I can't really take credit for it since AdBusters rocks. NSD's are just taking BND beyond the holidays and making frugality and simplicity a regular part of life. Mrs. Micah - Just try SPAM once, you might like it. Promise you might try it the next time it's offered? Kay - ooh. bummer... um, I hate you meme people all. j/k! LOL! For you, Kay, I'll find and repost.
