Happy New Year!

December and January are expensive months. After the flurry of spending, what are you planning for your financial well being in 2011?

I've got a few ideas on my mind.

1. Save for more long term fun! For example, set aside more money for summer camps, weekend trips, and surprise getaways.

2. Invest in our infrastructure. Make plans for those needed window coverings, think ahead to replacing furniture, and rearrange existing furniture and household items to make the house feel new and fresh.

3. Keep focused on quality. One great pair of jeans is almost always better than two just average pairs. Gather together some nice items that will last for a few years. Look for super sales on super stuff.

Cheap and Cheerful wants to know: Any advice to add to my three ideas? I'd love to hear your suggestions on how you plan to stay cheap and cheerful.
