More "no spending days"?

Now that we are home from vacation and life is getting back to normal, I am getting excited to add another "no spending day" to our week. I am thinking Tuesdays. I am finding that I am more excited and encouraged with this exercise than just trying to save money. For some reason, when I try to just "save money" I end up feeling deprived very quickly. With "no spending days" it is more like a game. So I am going to be a little crazy this week and throw Tuesday in as well as Thursday. I should probably clarify. I am not sure we are actually "saving" that much money, because we do spend on the other days. To me it is more the principle of choosing not to spend. If I didn't have a car would I go spend money every day? no. I would plan and budget alot better than I currently do.

I have alot to do to get ready for this since we have been gone. So grocery shopping tomorrow, buying a new childcare card at the workout place, and making sure the car is filled up.

Has anyone else tried a "no spending day?" I would love to hear how you did!
