The first week since launching Spending It is already over.  Boy the weeks fly by!!  Every Friday, SpendIt and I will provide a Personal Finance Week in Review.  We will cover the highlights in personal finance news, including a recap of what we covered on Spending It and highlights from the personal finance blog community.

This week SpendIt and I tried to build the foundation of Spending It .  We wrote several posts about our philosophy on saving money, including a great article all about SpendIt.  If you missed these articles, check them out now.
