I'm so happy it's Friday! Hooray!
DS is napping, the cats are occupying each other, and I'm chillin'! :) What a great day!
Here's the question of the day: If your electric bill (or whatever bill) came in significantly less than the amount you budgeted, what would you do?
Have a great weekend everyone!!!!!!!!

If I was not taking a big trip next year - I would just go out with the money.

I'm on a budget plan but occasionally there will be a lower bill due to lower than estimated usage.
I'd roll over and go back to sleep because I'd obviously be dreaming.
Our checking account is mainly for bill paying and usual expenses like groceries, gas, tolls, etc. So, when a variable bill comes in lower than expected, the money usually ends up in our Money Market savings account.
Every pay day, I pay the bills first - or plan for them - and then transfer a chunk over to savings. I leave just enough in checking for living expenses
