I will prime the pump here with some I can see around here:
1) my sewing machines
2) All of my food preservation eguipment (canners, dehydrators, juicers, etc)
3) Big freezer
4) wood stove
Anyone else have items they have purchased where you can actually see on paper, that they have paid for themselves in savings??
(another thread might be purchases that you've been able to MAKE money with)

My kids: I realize that it doesn't matter how much I've spent...every time I look at them it is all worth it.
Money we set aside to help others: when you give and see the benefits it just can't be compared to anything else you would benefit from. It is like the old Winston Churchill quote, "We make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we give."
