Friday Estimate

Let’s do our estimates for the weekend.

After a not-so-great time volunteering with the Red Cross last weekend, I’ve decided to volunteer with another group heading out to the Rockaways to dig out cars out of the mud, and clean up homes devastated by Sandy. I have to bring my own supplies, so I’ll be making a trip to The Home Depot after work today to buy things like that shovel pictured to the left that retails for $15. I’ll also need a face mask, and other things — my Home Depot budget is $50. Otherwise, I’m not planning on buying much else this weekend, except maybe some coffees and food when I do my grocery store run.

What are your estimates? Staying in in preparation for Thanksgiving the following week? Spending a ton of money because of Thanksgiving next week? Let’s have a good weekend.
