From his wife's perspective...
August 9th, 2006 at 07:11 amI thought I'd let you know how this has been going from a woman's point of view. One of the things I've been doing to help cut back on costs has been the one car. We had to get a new car because our last one blew a head gasket. So we thought about it and decided that instead of getting a car now and then a second one for me we'd just buy one and share. The total payment and insurance comes to about 300.00 a month. A whole lot easier to swallow than the 600.00 + we were paying for Scott's car he had when we first started dating.
I also started buying my make-up when it's on sale and getting an extra one instead of paying full price at seperate times. But the biggest thing I've done is changing my hair. For years I've been coloring my hair dark brown so I dyed it back to my natural blonde. It will save about 100.00 every 6-8 weeks.
Ladies, what have you done to cut down beauty costs?
