The first time I did BWW, I tried doing it without exceeding fee and reimbursement and failed. I then decided that if I were going to do it, I would do it knowing I (and hubby) would likely exceed anticipated payment so I really was just doing it to cut down on the cost of going there. I had a much better time with that in mind. Same with grocery shops -- I learned that trying to keep to the amount I expected to get paid was often too difficult so I just look at them as a way of saving money on something I have to do anyway (and, actually, lately, I have been keeping my purchase total to very close to the payment amount because I often don't need very much from the store but want to get paid for it).
