If you39。ve just spent $30 （184 yuan） 5 someone you were going to spend $25 on, you39。re going to have to spend $5 less on somebody else. The 6 to budgeting is staying within the boundaries （范圍） you39。ve set for yourself. What to do if you just can39。t 7 buying things once you39。re in a mall? The answer is pretty easy – bring only a small amount of money with you. 8 you see an expensive item that you really want to buy, wait a few days and see if you39。re still 9 it.
