I don't know, I'm curious to what you guys would do?

I use to love going to Goodwill because the prices were low and there was a lot to choose from. I grew up shopping there(youngest of 6 so you can see why) and still on a tight budget, but I can’t stand the store anymore. Yes, it still has lots to choose from, but it’s suppose to be a place for those that are on tight incomes to find reasonable priced items(and of course whoever else wants to come in). I can buy a new pair of jeans cheaper on clearance, even on sale, than I can at Goodwill most the time. I was looking at a top the other day and it was over $4 a and most the jeans $7 and up! I see items I can get cheaper in the store brand new, like DVD’s and yes, they employ those with handicaps, or at least say they do, but what they have become is a hungry, monster, money ‘machine’.

I love food. LOVE it. Which may be why my body mass index is now on the unhealthy side. Anyway, I decided to do something about my increasing waist line and finally started to exercise and to try to eat better. It's just that there are so many things I love to eat and I can't resist them all. I avoided the bakery aisle of the supermarket today (good) but I couldn't resist an unhealthy evening snack. And who can say no to a glass (or two or three) of wine? Or chocolate? I am finding it hard to remain disciplined. What do you do when the donuts come calling?
