Discovering what it takes to say "NO" to spending "YES" to saving

Hello everyone! Welcome to Chicky Finance! I started this blog in mid January after reading several PF blogs; I got so motivated that I decided to share my "not so smart" mistakes and hope that someone else can learn from my miscalculations at the same time witness my journey of becoming debt free!

Update on "Needs List"

Yesterday after work I went to a mall where I have not been for a long time..Ok not that long I meant to say FOUR months. I went there to accomplish one thing in my mind which is to buy white shirt from Express and lingerie from VS. Because my birthday is during May both Express and VS sent me a coupon for $15 and $10 so I thought this is a perfect time to take care of some "needs" stuff.
I got my white shirt from Express for $26 after $15 coupon and lingeri from VS for $64 by using $10 coupon. Total damage:$90.00
As soon as I finished shopping for "needs" items, I ran to my car, locked my car doors and drove away to safety where no one can take anymore greens out of my pocket(chicky purse better)!

Needs List Update
*Sexy Lingerie-check I go lingerie shopping once a year and it covers me for whole 365 days. The only problem is I used to buy all my lingerie from Victoria'a Secret, now I dont know what to do..Perhaps Target? I ended up going VS again but this time with my $10 coupon
*White shirt-check I need this desperately needless to say it is only for work. The Mission accomplished

    Great Job! The Mall is a very dangerous place for me and I dont "need" anything there unfortunately.
    But, you're right about the lingerie lasting a long time, so consider it money well spent!
