Quicken Says I Waste Money!

Welcome back!

I saw this on another blog while dropping Entrecards. I think it was earnontheside, but as his site seems to be down, I can’t be sure. Let’s give him a little thank-you, regardless.

It’s part of the Quicken Spare Change Challenge - and claims that I waste 240 dollars monthly. Me. Frugal Fergie - my first reaction was a scoff - that’s a lot of money, and simply not accurate. But after visiting the link about how to reduce that number, perhaps it’s somewhat true. By Quicken’s standards, maybe I really do waste a couple of hundred dollars a month. It all depends on your definition of waste.

Personally, I don’t consider buying healthy, organic foods, or environmentally-friendly products a waste. There are a few things listed I could do, however - like shopping at thrift stores. It’s not that I buy myself clothes often at all, but when I do, they’re brand new and of good quality. Come on! I’m a woman, having a few pretty outfits won’t hurt, will it?

It’s all in the budget, and we’re doing fine, so I’m okay with the results. You hear that, Quicken?

Anyhow, it’s a neat little test with some remarkably good tips, so, tell me, how much do you waste monthly? Find out here.
