Carnival of Debt Reduction XXXVI

Welcome to the 36th edition of the Carnival of Debt Reduction! If this is your first time here, please follow the signs on the right directing you to a proper welcome page.

This edition of the Carnival of Debt Reduction is all going to be in form of haikus! For those that don't remember, a haiku is a Japanese poem that has three lines that are 5,7, and 5 syllables each, respectively.

Also, there were a few submissions that didn't quite fit the theme of "debt reduction." Those particular entries won't get a haiku, but will get a mention at the bottom of the entry.

Without further ado, here's some debt reduction haikus!

Make up, food, clothes, wow!
Twelve-hundred five dollars spent
Husband not gorgeous
