I have been inspired by Kimandkathess and am joining the savingsfest! I am going to attempt to plunk away $500 in the month of August. This will be put toward an emergency fund.
This will be tough since my DH has been out of work for 6 weeks and we have not rec'd a TDI check yet, but I am going to try my best to generate $500 and I will bring you along for the ride!! :hamster2:
I am starting with an initial $20 put aside from my paycheck on August 1.
8/4/08- I tutor on Mondays and most of this has been going to groceries and spending money, but I have managed to wrangle $30 for the fund... fund total: $50.00

Today, I did meet up with the lady from Craigslist and sold a bunch of children's board books for $20! I am so happy that someone else can use the books that brought us such happiness... and that I can get just a little bit closer to my goal. I also sold a cute little sweater dress on Ebay. I bought it for $2 and sold it for 11.60 plus shipping. I am going to transfer $10 to my savings account and leave the rest in paypal for fees 
As of today, the total is: $87.21
