The "payday challenge"

Since we got married, I have been the one to take care of the bills. I actually love it! I love making my "bills list" every payday, and being blessed with money leftover after I've checked the last one off.
When my hubby worked day shift, and I had the car for the day, it would only take me one day to do everything on my payday list...yes, I make lists at my age..I'm either OCD or I'm getting "old", or maybe pregnancy really did take my brain from me like I was told it would :-). Now, my hubby works nights, and my one day has now turned into a three day marathon. He has now decided he doesn't like bill-pay-days as he calls them...oh how I can't wait until I can have the car for the day again.
I clip coupons, walk through the commisary to pick up extra coupons, and buy from Sam's club in an effort to get the most out of our food budget...and yes, we do have a budget.
I love the challenge of payday! I also think that a "zero balance" on our cards is one of the greatest numbers in the world, I really don't like owing money to anyone.
