When Enough is Enough
I read this post today from Coupon Teacher and it got me thinking. Her post is about having "enough".
I am guilty of this. Lately in my quest to become more frugal, I have been frequenting the savings blogs. Blogs that are full of special deals, coupons, sales, and more. I get excited over the possibility of bringing home bags of stuff for next to nothing! But then I have to tell myself, how much is enough!
Is it enough that my pantry is full? Yes. I hope in the new year to use my frugal-ness to donate to others in need. It made me feel good this year when a friend needed a little extra, and I was able to give her a bag of stuff and she accepted.
What I am hoping for in the new year, with our goal of not to spend, and paying down our debt, is to find that what we have is enough. A roof over our heads, food on the table, health, family, friends.
** Note, CouponTeacher is one of my favorite savings blogs! I will be doing a blog post or a link page in the near future of my favorites, but... add her site to your feed reader!!

One of my favorite sites - Eversave
Have you seen all of the daily deal sites out there? One of my favorites is Eversave. They are currently my favorite because, for all current members, they credited our accounts with $10! (This happened today, and I'm still full of the awesome) *note, "Full of the awesome" is an Aunt-Becky-ism... for those of you not familiar with Aunt Becky, check out her blog sometime for some great entertainment!
So, back to Eversave. They have some great daily deals, you can sign up for your city, or there are also some nationwide deals.
This is how it works: You receive e-mails from Eversave about their daily deals. If you like the deal, you can purchase it. One of the recent deals I used was $12 for $25 (or so) worth of magazines from Blue Dolphin. Those of you who know me personally know that I love magazines! So I used the voucher to buy All You magazine (which has tons of coupons!!) and Redbook, to spend the difference.
Another way to make Eversave work for you is referrals. Once you are a member, each member you refer that makes a purchase means a $12 credit in your account.
Also, as a new member, you receive a $5 credit just for joining! This means that you can get an extra $5 off of any deal! I used mine to purchase the magazine voucher for only $7! (An All You subscription costs over $20 normally)
Also, to sweeten the deal, members that join TODAY or TOMORROW (12/22) can use the coupon code FIRSTBUY to get an extra $5 off of any deal purchased today or tomorrow!
Happy Shopping!!

Blogs.... argh!
Don't you hate it when you are writing a post and you lose it? Argh! The darn internets tonight is driving me crazy.
How I Make Extra Money Online - MyPoints
MyPoints is another site that lets you earn points for things you already do online. I have been a member of MyPoints for at least 7 years, and I have cashed out multiple times for restaurant gift cards, Target gift cards, etc.
You get points for shopping at your favorite sites, but I prefer to use Ebates for this purpose.
Once you sign up for MyPoints, you will receive special offer e-mails, most of them are a "click" offer that you earn 5 points just for reading/clicking. 5 points doesn't seem like much, but if you read a couple emails a day, just for a few seconds of work, over a few months you'll have enough to cash out to get a gift card to one of your favorite stores. Some of the offers are 5 points to click, and 25 if you sign up for the site's mailing list, etc. More points if you make a purchase, but you have to go through their site to get to the site you want to purchase from.
They also send out surveys that you can do for 50 points or so, or 10 points if you don't qualify. I usually ignore the surveys since I do surveys for so many different companies, but, you can do this if you like.
You also get a small amount of points for referring new members, so if you are interested in trying out the site, let me know and I will get you a referral sent to your email!

One of my favorite sites - RetailMeNot
Have you heard of RetailMeNot? No? It's one of my favorite sites! It has coupon codes available for over 65,000 stores!
One of my best saving money trick for shopping online (besides using Ebates for every purchase, if possible) is going to Google and typing *store you are shopping at* and coupon code. At least 90% of the time, I find an offer that I can use for my purchase, and most of the time, the coupon code is on RetailMeNot. You can use these coupon codes to save extra money, in addition to the cash back in your Ebates account!
Another fun thing about RetailMeNot (well, I'm an online dork) is sharing the codes. If you sign up on the site, you can track codes shared and money saved using the site. I like to submit any coupon codes I can find, and since I've been using the site for almost a year now, I've submitted 257 codes and according to the site, saved others $33,066! When you use a coupon code to make a purchase, if you check "it worked for you" it will ask you approximately how much you've saved.
So, next time you make a purchase online, I suggest checking out RetailMeNot!
They also have printable coupons, and shopping tips for your favorite stores!

Week 2 Spending Update
Today's Spending....
So in a moment of weekness, I went with a friend to the Pens Store at the Consol Energy Center today. Another friend had given us a coupon for 30% off this week, but it can't be used on game days so today was the day.
When she mentioned she was going, I already had in mind that I was going to buy a Winter Classic T-Shirt. Don't even ask which player I got :) So, I went to the store. I resisted temptation to buy something way more expensive. I bought my T-Shirt, which is regularly $26, for somewhere around $18.
On the way back, I fell into the temptation of Au Bon Pain's macaroni and cheese. Another $5.00... but... yum! (And within my budget for the week). I am only working one more day this week so chances of doing that again are slim to none.
This evening... got gas (expensive!!) and was supposed to get an oil change... but I pulled in there and they were closed. So, money saved, but I will spend eventually.
I would be disappointed in myself about buying the t-shirt if I didn't like it so much! I've been kicking myself for not buying the Malkin St Patrick's Day Penguin shirt back in March, so I know I would regret this later if I didn't buy it. And, I only have *one* Winter Classic shirt, so....

How I Make Extra Money Online - SurveySavvy
I spend a lot of time online. I like to fill out surveys. I like to try new products free! For these reasons, I belong to several (well, a lot) of survey companies online.
SurveySavvy is one of them. I have been a member of SurveySavvy for a while now, and have received checks from them in the past. (See below for my history)
The surveys did not take a long time to take, and some of them were even interesting. It is nice to be able to request a check every few months and have some "extra" money!
Also, if you refer your friends, you also receive a small incentive when they complete surveys.
Sign up today!

Week 1 - Lost my allowance
Last week my husband and I were talking about how much "allowance" we would get each week - to get lunch out, to spend on whatever, to save for a larger purchase, etc. We decided to take an amount of money out to see how it went, since we will be doing the plan starting the first of the year.
I took my allowance out on Monday. I thought I was doing pretty well because on Thursday I still had a considerable amount of money left. I decided that since I had a handful of good coupons for the mall, I would go and spend a little money.
First purchase was at Sears, I had a $10 off $20 coupon and I have had my eye on a new wallet for some time. Since I will start carrying cash, I needed a wallet that had room for that. I also got some slipper socks to complete a Christmas gift (not in the allowance money) so I spent $11, part from the allowance.
Next stop was Hallmark, where I had a $5 off of a $5 purchase. Their wrapping paper was 4.99 and the second roll was .99 so I got two rolls of wrapping paper for around 1.30. So this will help me wrap my gifts!
I had a $10 Build a Bear voucher, so I decided to go and buy the little "motorcycle" jacket that Braden had been eyeing up last time we were there.... which only was $2.50 with the voucher... somewhere around $3.
After that was to go and spend my $10 Victoria's Secret "birthday" coupon. I chose my favorite perfume/body spray from there in a trial size.... so there was the $10.
I ended the night by using a Free Annie's pretzel coupon that was on the front of my Scholastic Parent & Child magazine.
After the mall, I visited Walgreen's to use my Jingle Cash and Register Rewards ($19!)
So ... when I got home I was so proud of the purchases that I made,.spending basically under $10 of my own money for all of those things. Then I realized that I only had $3 left, where I should have had at least $17-20 left. I felt so irresponsible... carrying money around is such a difference if you're used to the debit card way of things.
I showed my husband all of my purchases, and I was proud of myself for not spending much and coming back with so much. Then I explained to him that I lost the rest of my allowance, and the next day I would have to pack lunch instead of going out for the treat on Friday like my work group always does. He said to me, "Go anyway! Enjoy yourself!" Well, my #1 rule for the "allowance" was ... no excuses! If you run out of money, no excuses! So I included myself in that rule when I lost the money.
Fortunately at work on Friday I didn't miss not going to lunch because I had a work "crisis" and had to work through lunch anyway, and I stayed at my one office, where none of my work friends were working that day anyway. We had a food day the day before so I even got to eat free food that day!
So my lessons from week 1 learned:
1. Be careful with cash! Watch what you are doing at the checkout to make sure that you have everything in your hand before you step away.
2. Stick to the plan! Paying down our debt will only come as a result of one thing - sacrifice. If we keep buying whatever we want all the time, or "treating ourselves", or being weak, we will never get out of this situation.

My Plan
So I am currently working on organizing our finances. I'm trying to get a good idea of what we are spending and on what. I have been using Microsoft Money for quite some time now, so I have a good tracking of expenses for the past several years.
However - what I've found is the largest part of our spending is unavoidable at this time. The mortgage, which I will work on paying off once I've paid off other "consumer debt" and student loans, and daycare. I wish our daycare situation could be different - but right now we are paying a big amount of money for the quality care that our son is getting while we are working. It is not feasible for me to stay home, since I have the benefits, etc, and my husband is not a stay-at-home kind of guy. I have come to terms with paying the daycare - but that is why we have held off on having a second child for so long.... two in daycare would just kill us.
So right now, I'm working on getting our financial paperwork in order and organizing things around the house. To me, getting the house organized is part of my financial plan because it will help us spend less. I'd like for us as a family to appreciate the things we have instead of chasing that next big thing. We have so much here for entertainment, such as board games, books, and movies, but we are usually renting or buying something new. Also being organized will keep us from buying duplicates of something, or buying something that I've already had stockpiled.
Those of you who know me personally know that I have "Giant Eagle" in my basement. I've stockpiled various food, household and beauty products, etc. When I was growing up we had a small stock in the basement, as my mom was a smart shopper and taught me her couponing ways.
The big debate we're having is how much "allowance" we will be allowed to have. I'm afraid that being too stringent on ourselves will cause us to binge, much like when you diet and don't allow yourself any treats. I am good at packing my lunches for work, but I go out on Fridays for the social aspect of it, to see my work friends and leave the office for a short time. I would like to continue to do this, and have a little bit of money to save for something for myself, or whatever.

How I Make Extra Money - Ebates
Ebates is a great site that gives you cash back for shopping you already do on the internet!
I found a great post explaining all about ebates on Doughroller.net
If you are a new member you will get a $5 bonus on top of the cash back!
Sign up here!
Each purchase you make, check ebates first, login to ebates and find the site through their search. This will track your purchase and you will receive cash back to your ebates account. I believe they pay out every 3 months.
I received a check for $8.54 in October, and now between holiday shopping and a new laptop purchase, I've accumulated 49.85 for my next check.

Rewards Program - Huggies Enjoy the Ride Rewards
Huggies has a rewards program called Enjoy the Ride Rewards. You can find codes inside Huggies and Pull ups packages, but they also offer free promotional codes. You can earn points by taking short polls/surveys and watching videos.
The points are mainly redeemable for contest entries or donations.

The site says that 1 in 20 moms struggle with diaper needs and have actually cleaned out and reused wet or soiled diapers. I cannot imagine not having the diapers I need for my child, so if a few minutes of your time can help diaper a child, please consider donating points!
