Do You...?

1. Turn off all of the lights when you aren't in the room? My husband got after me for this the other week. I was dusting so I NEEDED them ALL on so I could see...the next day he left the light in the living room on when he was in the kitchen. Of course I had to be a snot and ask him if he was using the light in the living room :)

2. Use your computer instead of printing off all of your notes....(or whatever people who aren't in school print off?) I figure this will save us about 15 dollars a month...I just can't get used to TYPING my notes though...I'm a firm believer in writing everything down...but I'll try this "high-tech" way of taking notes if it saves money.

3. Shower at the gym. I've decided that this saves a bit on the water bill..so why not?

4. Eat soup. This is actually a GREAT tasting, healthy and CHEAP meal.

5. Pick your nose? Answer this one truthfully:)

I've Discovered....

I've discovered the benefits of garage sales.

1. You can sell all your junk and make a profit! Who really needs two picnic baskets? yes..we have two

2. It makes me feel less guilty when I store the junk in the garage...at least I know it has a purpose for being there.

3. It's easier to convince another member of the household to get rid of something if they think they might make a profit off of it.

4. Just make sure you don't become a victim of buying lots of "useful stuff" at other people's garage sales!
