The Daily Money Saving Challenge

Re: The Daily Money Saving Challenge

No, it has not ended. I had my computer crash on me and to make a long story short, this month they are going out weekly instead of daily. However, you should have received challenges on the 29, 30, 31 and September 2nd. The next one goes out on September 8th. Make sure that there wasn't an accidental change to your preferences. If you don't receive a letter on the 8th, please post again and I will see if Nate can figure out what is going on.

Don't mean to be dense, but I can't find the box to check to get this newsletter. I went to the page marked to edit my profile, but I couldn't find a box for it. Can you tell me where it is located? I'd really like to get this newsletter!

I have Nate looking into what it might be. Please make sure that the newsletter isn't accidently getting placed in your junk mail box and that you have the Daily Money Saving boxed checked. I'll let you know what Nate can find out if those aren't the problems...

Re: The Daily Money Saving Challenge

Bev,

It's definitley a little bit hidden...

I'll give you a direct link to it and then i'll tell you exactly how to get there (so in case you ever decide to unsubscribe you will know where to go).

First direct link: http://www.savingadvice.com/forums/p...ns#newsletters
That should jump you straight to the place where the check boxes are.

How to find that place: At the top of this page theres a link "My Control Panel". Click that. Then click "Edit Options" (5th link down). Then scroll down just a little bit you'll see "Receive Newsletters" and there you are.

Re: The Daily Money Saving Challenge

I can see Receive Email, but not one that says Receive Newsletters. Is that the right one?

Re: The Daily Money Saving Challenge

Yep it should be the box right below the "Receive Email" box. You don't see it?

Re: The Daily Money Saving Challenge

Bev,

I'm not sure what's going on. I would have to login to your account to see. Can you change your password and then email me or private message me with it? In the meantime I have manually signed you up.

lgalletta,

Make sure you check your spam folder. If you don't get it next time in either your spam folder or inbox, please let me know. Jeffrey when's the next one going out?

Okay, I received the one on the 15th but haven't had any between 28th August and this one. Go figure?

Re: The Daily Money Saving Challenge

Glad to hear that the timing was right on this one Actually, the credit for today's Money Saving Challenge goes to Nate. He told me a few weeks ago that I should add this one in somewhere one day while chatting. I'll be sure that he sees your post.

Re: The Daily Money Saving Challenge

This is my third day receiving challenges. Today's challenge was the first that I completed. The task was to write one thing on a to do list and make it a priority to complete the task that you wrote down.

I completed a task that I had been putting off since January. The task took all of ten minutes! I guess writing it down motivated me to get it done. Thanks.
