A leap forward and then a back handed smash backwards!

With life it always seems that you take a giant step forward towards a goal then something happens and you have to take some steps backwards. This week I had a win which I will share with you all first, and then I had a few steps backwards.

Here we go with the win! A few weeks ago there was a free offer from Beneful Dog food brand for a sample of their dry kibble and their treats. So this is what I got in the mail. Yay for free stuff!

Got a small pack of food, good enough for a meal or two for all my dogs, and two treat chews per pack, and then a couple coupons to buy the product. I will try and post free offers like this from here on out as I see them.

Now for the fail. free

Like I said at the beginning of my blog I am doing my best to live a Credit free life. Pay down debt and so on. Well I'm still working out my monthly budget, and I needed a few items. I know I am just trying to justify I used a credit card. But I had very little dog food left, and no milk or eggs, and it could not wait for another pay day. So.. I dug the card out I hid so they are not easy access, and bought it. And I feel really bad about it, even though I know this is not a huge fail, it is still a fail.. next week, back to week one!
