Only three days into our personal challenge and we spent money, now of course it was for a really good thing. We have needed a couch since we first got married. I had an old run-down falling apart sofa and he had a lumpy-bumpy futon. Well we got rid of the sofa and have had to sit on the futon for almost two years. Steve's friend has a sofa that he was trying to sell for $100. He offered to let Steve have it for $50. The deal was that if we spent any money towards anything except food/gas that we would "lose" our $50 each that we were trying to earn towards our wanted items.
We agreed that it was worth giving up our $50 each to have a nice sofa. Hopefully this no spending will get easier.

Hey, that is awesome on the couch! I say it was definitely a good buy. And I'd say it was a definite need, so that's good. =)
You are doing a great job! That is a fabulous price for a couch! Hang in there :)
