This isn't so much something I learned as a realization. I figured, if I'm not making money, then I'm spending money. With the exception of yesterday, when I didn't get out of my PJs and went outside just once, I usually go out shopping or wandering around on my days off.
I've been kind of doing this here and there, but I've made a conscious decision to make a bit of money each day I'm off. This can involve any number of things. I have a second "job" helping a friend out, so some days he needs me there, so that works. If not, I'm going to try to do a few surveys, work on mTurk, find a money making deal at the stores or sign up for a secret shop. That way, even when I spend money on my days off, I've helped off set it a little bit.
What did you learn this week?

Have a great week!
Thats a good realization and I agree. YouData is great, I just need to get better about logging in. Doesn't require a lot of time at all and I really enjoy it when I do it.
I have figured out that the best way to save money shopping is to not shop!
