My 1k list

August 26th, 2009 at 02:39 pm

This is gonna hurt. But its also probably good for me to see the damage. Thanks Monkeymama and Whitestripe for the idea. (Anyone else noticed that we all tend to "borrow" each others ideas alot? Lol).

Tour of Canada Vacation $1000 (2000)
College Education $25,000 (2000-2005)
Bahama and Florida Vacation $1200 (2001)
55g Fishtank (setup costs) $1000 (2003)
Airfare to Scotland for 4 $2700 (2004)
Wedding reception BBQ $1000 (2004)
Mattress set with pillows $1000 (2006)
Bed frame, Bedstand, & Table $2400 (2006)
125g Fishtank (setup costs) $2000 (2006)
His and Her road bikes $2000 (2007)
5-burner gas stove $1000 (2008)
LG Steamwasher $1100 (2008)
1996 Subaru $1250 (2008)
Dishwasher $1297 (2009)
Handyman for house repairs $2200 (2009)
New Windows $6500 (2009)

It took me awhile to think of this list. I obviously don't categorize based on price. I do categorize based on project or hobby type. In my head, I had to literally go through what we have been doing to find the items.

    It's kind of funny, I thought my list might be kind of borrowing to everyone else.

    I just logged on and saw like 5 "1k entries" in a row.
    Hey, I started a trend!

    But yeah - we always borrow each other's ideas - and it's what makes blogigng here fun.

    Yup I agree. I laughed when I saw all the entries. I already managed to forget an item. For some reason its really difficult for me to remember these items though most of my spending belongs in the under $500 category.

    $2500 for Computer (2005)

    boring/blogging - can't type today!

    I thought it would be boring, but it was borrowed - that's what I meant!

    I love when someone starts a trend of posting charts, financial epiphany stories, etc.! It's one of the many endearing qualities of the SA blogger community.
