My goals are updated on my sidebar. I originally had a much more detailed list. After a great deal of thought, I realized I needed goals I could attain without setting the bar too low. They are still on the low side, but it's what I feel I am capable of at this stage. I hope to exceed several of them.
I am excited about the $20 a week out-of-pocket for the groceries and household goods. This is very dependent on the grocery store mystery shops not going away. Assuming they stay, I average 6 of those a month. I am reimbursed $10 for groceries for those shops. I also earn a fee, but I am not using the fee on these shops. A good amount of food is also covered with restaurant shops. The rest of the food and household goods will be ordering from Amazon Prime Pantry. That money is free to me as well because I earn Amazon credit from several programs including Swagbucks, Media Insiders Panel, and InstaGC.
I personally like a set it and forget it amount for savings. However, my income is so variable right now, the 52 week challenge is a better fit.
As far as the cleaning, I do basic cleaning daily. The idea with the 15 minutes is to focus on something larger such as going through boxes, scrubbing a floor thoroughly, etc.
The trips should be doable since I can work while I am gone and I am staying with family and friends. I shouldn't pay more than some extra gas to reach those destinations.
I hope you all reach any goals you set for the year. I wish you all a happy and healthy 2016.
