I had a pedicure fifteen years ago.

"With only $200 a week, I had to stop and think about the purchases I was making. Was an $8 grande iced vanilla latte with sweet cream foam from Starbucks really worth it, or could I just make a coffee at home? Was takeout necessary, or will a bowl of cereal suffice for dinner?

Thankfully, living at home, I didn't have to pay rent or utilities, so I could focus my spending on essential purchases, including gas, while still having enough for the nonessentials like a manicure. Sometimes I thought I'd have plenty of money until my next paycheck, but then a gym membership or Netflix payment would go through."
