    I'm so lame. I should have updated this a lot sooner. Sorry.

    Our experiment was a semi-success. On the one hand, we did go an entire month basically on the limits I had put on our spending. On the other, I called it off a few days ago, much earlier than I wanted to. I'm still happy with the way things turned out. We started our experiment before the end of March and we ended it around the same time in April.

    We did save a lot of money. We also managed to break the fast food habit. We're eating a lot healthier and hardly drinking any soda.

    It was a nice needed 'reset' from all the conveniences and short cuts that I was used to. I'll probably elaborate later, for now I just wanted to post since the last day was technically up.

    Thanks everyone for your encouragement.
