"Credit buying is much like being drunk.  The buzz happens immediately
and gives you a lift.... The hangover comes the day after." -- Joyce Brothers

==============================================================

Hello!

This week begins a fun new phase in my Mommysavers "career".  I'll
be visiting eleven regional television markets speaking on behalf of
Mommysavers about new baby products.  It should be fun!  Check out
the schedule and don't forget to tune in!

Have a great week,
Kim

Money Saving Ideas:

Hair Care
Use a cheaper shampoo and conditioner on days that you aren't going anywhere or
are going to wear your hair in a ponytail. (I tried Suave today and actually like
it a lot. It was about .99 each bottle compared to my 5.88 each for Pantene)
-- Member kdkenn

Writing for Coupons
Companies will generally respond to a request, especially when filled with praise!
I was recently sent coupons from Huggies and Lansinoh when I emailed complaints to
their customer service departments. -- Member swishina

Cheap and Easy Wall Decorating by Kathleen Wilson

walls, on a budget!

Money Talk:

Setting Financial Goals
Do you have them?  What are they?  Do you write them down?
http://mommysavers.com/boards/money-matters/28522-setting-financial-goals.html

Assumptions about those with "toys" - Is it wrong to have them?
The "Joneses" threads got me to thinking. Do you automatically assume that people
with the "toys" (boats, fancy cars, designer clothes, etc.) are in debt or covering
for an empty life? Is this your experience? If someone can afford them, is it wrong
to have "toys" or trappings of the good life?
http://mommysavers.com/boards/money-matters/28769-assumptions-about-those-toys-wrong-have-them.html

Spending money on things OR experiences
What are your thoughts on spending extra money. Do you prefer to spend it on "things" you can show for
it or on experiences where they may be nothing to show for it but create good memories?
