Stockpiles really growing now!!

Posted 03-24-2010 at 02:38:12 PM by jaelyns_mommy (Life as a new $$ saver)

I'm so happy Its growing slowly but I know it will be big soon. Im really starting doing the trading game and it is working for instance Im getting vitamin water for $.19 each this week :) It feels so good when you can use more than the usual 1 or 2 q's. I am on cloud nine, esp since I have a bunch of white cloud tp lol :) Hopefully I'll be done by the summer and I'll have a new camera by then to show off all of my hard work with the help of you guys

New savings plan

Posted 01-30-2010 at 10:56:51 PM by jaelyns_mommy (Life as a new $$ saver)

Well after all of the drama I just went through this past week I have decided to try and do a new savings plan. I really want, and I mean really want, a 2010 Ford fusion hybrid. I saw the exact same car a dealership in portsmouth that I saw in manchester during the summer and it is around $6k cheaper, it doesnt have bluetooth but I dont need it. It cost around $30k but it has everything I want. It is the light blue one that you see on the commercials, it has a gps, back up camera-Im the worst parrell...

Heading off to college

Posted 01-06-2010 at 07:14:44 PM by jaelyns_mommy (Life as a new $$ saver)

Yep I'm heading out to college, well online anyway I'm so proud of myself for getting this done. I'll be going to Kaplan online for medical transcriptionist. And the best part, after grants and scholarships, I'm getting money back :) but that of course will be saved to pay off the loans. But the whole course for 2 years is around $12k. Now I wont have to rely on SSI and welfare to support me and my daughter since me and Jay just broke up a few hours ago and man oh man, I still dont have...

New year, new goals

Happy New Years everyone I've decided to be more stricked with my spending and saving. I'm going to start out with using the envelope system, hopefully that works. I'm also going to be doing the grocery shopping by myself, no BF. I'll try to eat better and buy more fresh produce. I will start to go to Wags and CVS again only for freebies though, since I have enough of most HBA items. I do need to refurbish my PT and TP pile and maybe add some more dishsoap and laundry soap in there too....
