'LESS TIM'S = A BILLY BOOKCASE'
CHALLENGE
Cutting down on my Tim Horton's Spending will enable me to buy the bookcases I have wanted forever! Good -bye 'Large with one cream' , hello bookcases! Yes, I will miss my daily trip to Tim Hortons, a traditional event in my day that brings me happiness, BUT I really want those...........Bookcases! (I know I am a geek.)
How will my challenge work?
My Billy Bookcases, from Ikea, will cost me $414; if I cut out my Tim Horton's spending 6 days a week for 41 weeks and 4 days, I will be able to buy my Bookcases!

Ha ha I love it. Twice (in 98 and 2007) I went a whole year without drinking pop. It was tough! Good luck, but also good on you for realizing where possibly addiction can lie and giving yourself a good way to tackle it. I love coffee as much as the next person- good for yOU! (yes i found your blog! woohoo thanks!)

Carrie, how in the name of all that's good, am I going to do this? T. H. at home is NOT the same, this is NOT FAIR! (bawl,sniff,sniff) Shelagh
I know, the draw of Tim Hortons is tough to battle. It doesn't have to be Tim Hortons, it could be shoes, jewellry, alcohol, etc. Where ever you think you can cut back...
