Simple efforts go a long way. Like making decisions on what and where to spend. The key is to have restraint.
For example, today is Saturday and I was looking for something to do with my kids, 5 and 7. We had skating lessons today. Then I took them to swim — we have a 3 month membership at a pool club. Had thought of spending $60 on snow tubing, but thought better of that.
Instead, went to the Keene, NH ice festival, walked around a bit, saw some snowboarders and then off to eat some ice cream (soft serve).
Daily spend: $3 hand-car wash, $1 on candy treat for kids, $0.50 on the paper and $5 for ice cream.
