With my paycheck, I am going to purchase one hundred dollars in groceries, fifty dollars in gas, and save the remaining cash. Groceries must be bought, and gas has to be in the vehicle to make it back to work the following week. The remaining cash can serve me should some random purchase come up, otherwise I would assume save it.
