Spend, woman, spend!!:D

depends on your own personal rules
as I count the day I pay for something using my c/card as a spend day, I don't count the day I pay my c/card bill
Well I dont really have any personal rules, as this is my first month i've pretty much gone with any day I've spent anything, including bills as they are all on the 1st anyway but im not going to count it, it was ebay money anyway!!0 -
