Poll of the Day > How long do you think you could go without spending any money?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Honestly, I feel like I could barely make it a week. I tend to cave for fast food fairly often. I probably could plan ahead to buy enough groceries for a week's worth of food, but not much more than that. Plus there always seem to be tons of little things that come up all the time.

Also, let's say monthly bills are excluded from this. But it wouldn't make a difference for me since there's no way I'd eclipse a month either way

I only make monthly incidental purchases... everything else is food/bills

Bills make it hard to go very long without spending money. But since we're excluding those... I realistically wouldn't go more than a week without specifically planning for it. I go through fruits and vegetables too fast, but don't want to stock up on them in case I'm not around to eat them.

Technically speaking I used to go a month at a time when I was working out of country in a camp. Nothing to spend money on there after all...

It would be pretty hard to go more than a week without buying groceries unless you ate exclusively canned/frozen foods and a lot of pasta/ramen. I don't think I could stand that

Between gas, food, and assorted bills, it'd be pretty hard even before you get to the little things in life.

A few days tops. Gonna wind up getting food or gas at some point.
---

Three or four days. I always buy lunch or a snack while at work.

I did a 10 day hike on the Appalachian Trail in my early 20's. We stopped in a nearby town and bought lunch on day 6. But other than that I wasn't spending any money trekking through the wilderness.

Seems like i'm with most to go about a week. I try to not spend money on lil things every once in a while, especially now during the holidays to help save a lil.

I usually go 2 or 3 days at a time without spending money a couple times a month. It's hard at a grocery store when I see snacks and candy everywhere that is only a dollar or so, but it adds up.

If I want to keep my job, only a week. I have to fill up once a week for my long commute. I have enough food in my pantry and fridge to last for a few weeks most likely.
---

I'm up to 5 minutes so far.

Probably a week or so. I like peanut butter sandwiches a lot, so I need bread at all times... I guess I could freeze some. Also have to put gas in the car at least every other week... So... Maybe two weeks if I really organized things well.

fifty years I would just karate chop a policeman and go to prison haha I win

A week or so. It helps being a unemployed, introverted bum.
