Thanks for the links. It will really help people with overwhelming debt like me to move on with life. It's hard when you have to deal with it alone without the advice from the experts.
I love coupons and I'm also a business owner. Coupons are a marketing strategy a business (store, restaurant or manufacturer) uses to promote their business or product. Taking advantage to an extreme is wrong. Stripping a business of their profitability is wrong. Good business is when EVERYBODY wins. Consumer meets product and a sale price, consumer tries product, consumer likes product,consumer repeats.
A relationship established around a good promotion (in this case,a coupon) is the idea. Not, "lets take advantage and buy stuff below cost so it hurts the business".
Good business is a 2-way street. Extremism is almost any form is negative.
I have always supported women who wanted to work from home. That is why i have dedicated a proper page to provide assistance to the work at home moms. Lately, I have seen that blogging and creative product sales is what drives most earnings to a household run by a woman. nevertheless, with proper guidance you can find numerous other ways to earn online too.
This bank really takes security into great deal.They have great deals and very low fees.They do not charge an over draft fee,just a very small amount of interest if you do over draft.
carrots were orignaly purple, They were altered by the dutch to be orange to honnor their roal house, that took off and gives us the orange carrot that we all have copme to know today
We have a small garden... we always grow tomatoes & basil~ we've also grown cucumbers, bell peppers & eggplant. Eventually I'd like to try a larger garden & do more.
I don't get enough sunlight to make the effort worth it. I do allow my green onions to root in a window sillo and give me a second or third go at them. Does that count?
All loose change in my purse or from hubby gets put in a two gallon jar for years we've enptied it out and brought it to the savings account where we have between 3 and 4 hundred dollars at the end of each year, painless savings. We coupon, wait for sales on those items.Make losts of leftovers, my hubby hunts for duck, deer and and we put out hoop nets (big nets for fish), we frog, so lots of stuff in freezer. and we have time together frogging! Don't use paper towels, we have rags, we wash. Only use credit card sparingly (only one), we pay when bill comes in. No debit cards or checking, we use cash and money orders. Run errands once a week, to save on gas. Trying to keep our carbonfootprints to a minimum!Have fun on weekends at home with our 4 grown kids, their spouses and our grandkids, game nights, lots of swimming and good old -fashioned fun!
We remodeled our backyard last year, and made sure to leave a spot for a garden. Our kids planted strawberries, lettuce, peppers, and lots of herbs. It was fun to watch the garden grow through the eyes of our children, and the excitement on their faces when that first strawberry was ready!
I love growing my own food! There is nothing better then making a salad and being able to say "I grew everything in this except for the dressing." And BLTs with super fresh heirloom tomatoes? AMAZING.
I just bought a new house so there isn't much...yet. I have some major plans. I want to put in blackberry and blueberry bushes, 6 grape vines, 4 raised beds in the south part of the yard, a container garden on the front porch, and an indoor year-round herb garden.
I live in the north (Zone 4), so the hardest thing for me is the short growing season. I make up for this by buying some plants (like tomatoes and peppers) and then growing some other plants (like lettuce) from seed.
It can be a lot of hard work, but it is always worth it. Nothing tastes as good as something that you grew yourself. Good luck!
Before the crash, I was lucky enough to buy a small house in the Catskills. The terrain is rocky and wooded, so I put in raised beds and started to grow vegetables, with the idea of growing most of my summer greens and salads. It's been a learning experience, and there have been a couple of hurdles.
The biggest has been lack of light caused by the neighboring trees (on neighbors' land). Trees don't stop growing, and lack of light has meant that I'm sorely restricted in what I can grow. Lettuce and herbs have proved to be the most successful long term; with strawberries on the side. Swiss chard also seems to put up with anything. But forget tomatoes, they are prima donnas who want lots of light all the time.
The other issue turned out to be the fact that I don't live in the house full time, and five days away in the city can wreak havoc on a vege bed (especially if there's a heat wave or drought).
Yet despite these setbacks, I'll never give up on growing veges. It's a constant education as every year is different, and there is something really satisfying about freezing, drying or just plain cooking something you picked out of your yard. (and... you know where it came from!)
I garden every year . i have fun thinking about it. There is nothing like a home grown tomato. I enjoy what I grow. i only have a small space but i make the most of it and i add a few. pots. I have tomatoes. cucumbers, squash,turnips, peppers, eggplant and green beans, perhaps some other beans. i'm just getting started.
I never knew that bobby pins had so many uses. We usually have a few laying around the bathroom, kitchen, junk drawer or various ledges in our house so I will give some of these a try. I will try the hidden tie clip idea first, I honestly had never thought of a bobby pin being used for that before.
I have been gardening for a long time. This year, we moved my vegetable garden and expanded it so it's now about 22'x20'. I have tomatoes, garlic, peppers, strawberries, green beans, eggplants, pumpkins, watermelons, banana melons, cucumbers, luffa gourds and sunflowers. I think I'm going to try some corn too. I have seedless concord grapevines and make jam from them and the strawberries every year, and I'm getting into edible landscaping. My herbs are spread throughout my flower beds around the foundation of the house, and right now I have lettuce and chives growing in pots. Nothing tastes as good as food you've grown yourself!
I've just started growing my vegetable garden this year. I have topsy turvys with tomatoes, strawberries and pepper plants. Most of my plants are in containers. I have more tomatoes, herbs, melons, summer squash and lettuce and many more. This is my way of offsetting my food cost :)
I'm more likely to stay with the brand as long as I find that they don't mess with me. If they do something to somehow interfere with my life - like start asking me a lot o questions about brand loyalty and signing me up for surveys - I stop paying attention to the brand. Admittedly, though - most of the time I don't even pay attention to the branding.
We only grow a few things...we love growing our own tomatoes! We also have tried some herbs...but didnt have much luck with them. I would love to do more such as green beans, carrots, and peas!
Absolutely I do! I'm regrowing celery on my windowsill, alongside basil, parsley and mint. Outside I've got tomatoes and peppers, zucchini and hopefully some blueberries on the way! Gardening is great and great fun.
I love movies but instead of asking what they're favorite movie is, I ask what the last movie they watched was. Or the last book they read. Sometimes the answer is "embarrassing" (even the biggest film buffs watch dumb movies now and again) which is great! it breaks the ice, gets us into a conversation that can go anywhere, and it builds trust because they get to reveal something about themselves.
In addition to making her own elderberry wine, canning the cherries from the tree in the back yard, and gathering nuts from the tree down the street (for free!), my mom saved money by making her own sauerkraut. And it was good!
If I grew my own food I would starve to death. I do NOT have a green thumb. Every plant I've ever owned has died a horrible death. I wish I had the talent and space for a little fruit and veggie garden. Maybe someday...
I typically buy a Tshirt for my kiddos. When they outgrow them, I have a box where they're all stored. (My daughter was *that* small when we sent to San Diego Zoo???) I plan on making a Tshirt quilt out of them one of these years.

Each season we grow tomatoes, radishes, and carrots. Sometimes we grow herbs.
carrots were orignaly purple, They were altered by the dutch to be orange to honnor their roal house, that took off and gives us the orange carrot that we all have copme to know today
How do you clean it then, jenny?

We have a garden....but we live in a cold area so sometimes we do not get much. It is fun to get anything from the garden and kids love it!
