So what is a Money Free Weekend?

"The Simple Dollar finance blog suggests a relaxing way to cut back on spending: A money-free weekend. There are just two rules: We are not allowed to spend any money on anything, no matter what. In other words, we can't make a run to the store to buy food, we can't spend money on any sort of entertainment, and so on. Since we often do our grocery shopping on Saturdays, on a "money free" weekend, we delay it to Monday or Tuesday.

We can use our utilities, but no extra expenses on these 

utilities. No renting movies on cable, no text messages that aren't already covered by our cell phone plan, and so on."

What about gas? Can we use gas to drive somewhere as long as we dont need to use a whole tank of gas and refill?

I second that question...

Yes - Pummica - you fill up before the weekend begins and your activities/places you travel should not cause you to need to refill.

I love this one. Almost all my weekends are Money-Free Weekends!

t's a great way to save money and still have a good time. Also, I'd like to introduce a time card calculator tool that can be useful for tracking work hours.
