Exemplary month, here! This may be my best month yet. With the opportunity to not only work a holiday for a day of time and a half, I also worked over 40 hours of overtime on top of that. Plus, it was a 5-week month, so even more income and savings than usual. I banked a lot of the extra cash and put some into the credit card to prepare for a full payoff within the next couple of months. I purchased a bicycle at a retail store, orginially $190 and I walked out paying $105 due to sales, discounts and coupons. That’s a score!
I hope to continue another month with at least a few hours of overtime here and there. This month includes a trip to the Packers’ Training Camp, so I’ll definitely be losing some money there. But I had a good month, and am prepared to spend a bit to enjoy myself and time with my friends/girlfriend. I should be receiving a pay raise starting this week as well. A small raise of $0.50/hour, but still it adds up to a $936 gross per year increase!
Till next time!
