Share Your Stupid Spending Stories at Spendster

I just received an email about a new site called Spendster.org. The non-profit site allows people to share their costly mistakes while they rate and discuss those of others. The site also provides tools to calculate how costly items like unopened DVDs and spotless coffee makers really are and how much could have been saved if that money were put to more productive use. I’m not that big on social media myself so I probably won’t use the site much. I do agree with their philosophy of discouraging unnecessary purchases and educating consumers on their own personal financial needs and capabilities. If you feel like sharing something stupid you spent money on head over to Spendster and give it a try.
