Saving

I have never been good at saving money.  There always seems to be a new tech toy that I want that always seems to get my extra money.  Since we are planning on buying a house sometime soon, we have been saving money like crazy.  Saving money is now becoming addictive.  Sure I want a XBox 360 and a Wii and a Nintendo DS, but I don’t want to take money out of our savings account.  Last week when I paid bills and balance the checking account we had an extra $600.  I could have easily bought a toy, but instead I transfered it to our savings.  It’s kinda fun watching that number grow.  I don’t know if it is as fun as a XBox 360 though.
