Finacial Wake-Up Call 3-9-2007


Financial wake-up call In God We Trust Missing On Coins: The US Mint is apologising for leaving the words “In God We Trust” off of some coins it sent into circulation:

The United States Mint has struck more than 300 million George Washington Presidential $1 Coins. We have recently learned that an unspecified quantity of these coins inadvertently left the United States Mint at Philadelphia without edge-lettering on them. It is unknown how many of these coins without inscriptions on the edge have been placed into circulation.

The United States Mint understands the importance of the inscriptions “In God We Trust” and “E Pluribus Unum,” as well as the mint mark and year on U.S. coinage. We take this matter seriously. We also consider quality control a high priority. The agency is looking into the matter to determine a possible cause in the manufacturing process.

$59,000 Saved With Coupons: Many think that using coupons is a pain and not worth the effort, but if you approach it as a game the payoff can be significant as shown in this article (via Boston Gal’s Open Wallet):

If you think using coupons doesn’t pay, you haven’t met Trudy Avery…From 1993 to 2006, the savvy shopper saved a staggering $59,064.31 on her groceries. By combining manufacturer’s coupons with weekly supermarket sales, Avery saves an average of 50 to 60 percent on her weekly grocery bill.
