Re: Ima saver's 2006 $20 challenge

Well i just looked thru an old coin collection. I came across some Susan B. anthony dollars from 1979, They are only worth a dollar today, so I think I will turn them in the next time I go to the bank.

I stayed home from town yesterday and when I do that I add $1 to my challenge cause I figure it cost me about $1 or more in gas to go to town and back. Then last night, we did not go out to dinner cause it was snowing so hard. I figure that saved me at least $20, so I will add $21 to my challenge money.

It is still snowing so I went to the grocery store, stocked up on sprite on sale, found pork chops on sale and had a $2 coupon. I saved a total of $12 today at the grocery store.

Re: Ima saver's 2006 $20 challenge

I did well on the challenge today. We stayed home last night instead of eating out (it was snowing) so i saved $20 there. I sent my husband to the liquor store and we did not buy his "usual" bottle. Saved $25 there (his father gave him one) Saved $4 at the grocery store using coupons. I physically take this money and put it into a cash box until I have enough to put in the savings account.

Thanks. It is a challenge to find ways to save money every day. I am fortunate enough that I can take the actual savings and put it in my cash box.

My husband installed a hand rail (he made it too) for a neighbor and just came home with a check for $75. My husband never takes these little odd jobs, but I have been incouraging him since I started this challenge.
