0-100 for me as times are impossiblty tight right now...my husband walked out on myself and my 21 month old son after 5 years of marriage...and it seems like all the money I make goes straight to bills. But coming on this site is my way of day dreaming of all the things I will one day be again able to consider buying. In the meantime, keep the bargain hunting rolling girls!
Tosh...unfortunately no...he literally walked out on us and has not reachable ever since. He had a family history of emotional/mental disorders that I only recently found out about. It's been a shock to my sytem...as I was going to continue being a stay-at-home mom and homeschool my child(ren). I have faith things will improve day by day, but being able to daydream helps in the meantime.
Tosh: I only have one...my son (21 months old)...I had "planned" on a large family...my husband walked out two weeks after I had to go to the hospital for an ectopic pregnancy. And believe me, I am having my share of weak moments also. But my logic is that I won't allow my son to suffer at his father's hands...I want him to still have every opportunity he would have had with two parents...if at all possible.
Oh, my. I spend far too much on clothing. I put $200-300. I need to stop and start sinking more money into my business. That's my New Year's Resolution.
I am so sorry you're going through this! How awful for you!
Back to the topic, which seems silly now...
My husband and I each have individual "fun money" checking accounts. We put $100 in each account at the start of every month. (Mine is usually gone by the 7th or so...)
Anything over that comes from gifts/selling on ebay/etc.

Worry not...all things considered, if life for me and my son was any version of 'normal' right now...my budget would probably be $100, $50 for me, $50 for my son-I LOVE clearance racks!!!
