To be honest, I have very few updates this week! I spent a few days in Baltimore last week for a business event, and then I was visiting my family for a couple of days. Now I'm back up north and back in the saddle again!
I got paid by Ticketmaster for my Guns N Roses tickets, so that was a nice little boon! I spent 10% of that in a donation to the ASPCA to help the animal rescuers after all of these hurricanes. Am I crazy, or has this been the most devastating storm season in at least 25 years?
I also am already seeing a payoff after changing around my retirement plan to 90/10, so I feel completely vindicated on that front! I am also very happy to announce that my company met the profit sharing goal, so I will be receiving a $750 bonus in my 401k!
As far as saving money, I managed to find a 6-month trial of PodPass, which is Peapod's free delivery service! Now I don't have to try as hard to find discounts to offset the cost, although I still will.
Also, my company has partnered with local gyms to offer a $25/month + $25 signup deal, which works even at my old LA Fitness! So basically, I could waltz back in and get back to the same rate as before, but with no personal trainer shenanigans. I'm not sure if I want to pull the trigger on that yet though. I am actually curious to try a dedicated yoga studio down the street. Now that I am back from my trip, I think I'll go over and try out their 3-week unlimited "explorer pass" for $30.
My figures kinda feel like they are going backwards since my Blue Cash Preferred finally rolled over into carrying a balance, but I know I'm going to take care of it in due time, especially when I get $200 knocked off my bill after I hit $1000 spend.
Hope to have more updates next week!
