What are you saving $$$ for (HR)?

Heavenly Jumper · 07-01-2008, 12:20 PM

I was getting ready to buy a dressage saddle.

Just lessons I guess. I currently don't even ride so that would be better than it is now. I would be saving up for a horse but with just a part time job that's a bit unrealistic and i doubt my mom would even let me get a horse if I could afford it by myself anyway.

I will eventually be needing a new saddle for my young horse. We're borrowing one that fits her well for now, but she is still growing and filling out. I'd like to wait until she's 6+ to invest in one of her own...

Right now I have £65 ($130) put away for little things for my new horse. I want to get a headcollar and lead, a bit, a browband and maybe some tendon and fetlock boots. It depends what the shop has in when I go!

Dover is having a HUGE summer sale right now.

Let's see, uuum lots of things. Lessons! New saddle+fittings, bridle, tall boots, that's all I can think of at the moment. I mostly just want little things for Jazzy, and possibly a new horse in the future.

Dressage saddle

Ugh. Lol. Soo expensive...

I also want

*A sheepskin half pad
*An Eskadron boot set
*A Professional's Choice SMB set
*A coolmedics vest

Sooo that'll all total up to around 3000. Lovely.

I'm getting a job in the fall...let's see...If I work 24 hours per week at roughly 5 bucks an hour, it would take me...25 weeks. So like half a year. Hey, I can deal! One step at a time...HEY just one week of work gets me one of the four items after the saddle!

Then...the saddle itself...can we have a grandparent joint effort please?
