mine hasn't - i feel really guilty. in general, i tend to be frugal (public transporation to work, bring lunch every day to work, downsized insurance last year before the huge stock market implosion, etc.).
however, i have been donating more to charity, be it money and/or in goods. i've also been selling off stuff if possible (ebay, etc.). in june, our company is having a flea market, and my co-worker and i are considering getting a booth together. the booth fees will go to the aloha united way.
as far as workouts, i'm always behind the crowd. the only bandwagon i jumped on recently was clx, and i got it used on yaya's. but my decisions to not buy had more to do with disinterest (sts, barry's, target leslie's, etc.)
