How to Protect Your Possessions From TheftFrugal Village8 Jun 2016 | 7:04 amHave you ever been the victim of thievery? Chances are strong that you have, in one way or another. Perhaps your brother, sister or friend hornswoggled you out of the last piece of pizza, or snuck off with a six-pack of your favorite beverage. Often we allow these small trespasses, but if you've had the bad luck of coming home to a burglarized house or car, or have had your wallet lifted from your pocket, you know the feeling of violation that accompanies the experience.

Budget Believability: Do you really have budget you follow?Ms. Frugal4 Jun 2016 | 8:18 amHow many times have you written out a budget and felt really good about it, only to realize after a few months that you really aren't paying much attention to it? In fact, maybe that budget isn't worth the paper its printed or written on, and at the end of the day, you still are losing money at the end of every month. What you have written may not be what is coming to pass, quite frankly, in that your budget isn't really working for you and is just there, doing very little to help you save money. The real key to saving money and having a budget is paying attention to more than just the…

Could a Tiny House Be the Right Choice for You?26 May 2016 | 11:35 pmIf you are a fan of HGTV and the DIY Network, you may already be familiar with the tiny house movement.

In fact, maybe that budget isn't worth the paper its printed or written on, and at the end of the day, you still are losing money at the end of every month.

Budgeting Blow: Don't plan on saving without budgeting12 May 2016 | 1:08 pmEveryone has a friend, family member or co worker that wants to save money and when asked or pressed about how they're doing it, they don't have any answers. Even though the one answer you're looking for is the easiest of them all: have a budget and stick to it. The "sticking to it" part won't mean a whole lot if you don't even have a budget and you're simply paying bills blindly as your paycheck or other sources of income are tallied but hardly tracked accordingly. What is a budget so important? Mostly because the majority of people know how much they make, they know how much their paycheck is for and that it goes into the bank. But conversely, they aren't as sure what they are...
Waste Not: Wasteful money habits plague ability to save14 Apr 2016 | 5:41 pmWhen it comes to saving money, we tend to let most of those extra dollars slip through our fingers. And, that typically happens in the most obvious ways. That is, of course, if we are paying attention, and most of the time something so "obvious" as far as wasting money and not saving it tends to be harder to see that you think. Wasting money from a financial perspective isn't so much about spending as much as it is about not being able to save and going counter productive to what is in your budget. If you are spending money on items and services that aren't needs, and your budget is in the negative, that's waste at its pinnacle. Extra money needs set aside for retirement, into a savings account or...
House on Hold: Why some expenses at home can be cut14 Mar 2016 | 10:08 amSaving money starts at home, whether that's clipping coupons for grocery store shopping or spending less on clothing via at second hand stores or online auctions, and anywhere else you can pull together money for our savings account. But instead of staring blankly at a change jar that gets all those loose pennies, how about really getting serious about saving money and looking a little deeper at household expenses that you really can cut or eliminate altogether. First and foremost has to be your television, more specifically your cable and internet package. The internet, for your entertainment purposes, might be needed but streaming is the way to go to save money. Cable can easily be eliminated if...
Spending Flee: Why post-holiday shopping will sabotage you savings1 Feb 2016 | 1:03 pmRaise your hand if you used your credit card over the holidays. This year. Last year. Any year, really. Chances are that hand is up and would be up for the last several years as the majority of shoppers tend to lean on their plastic during that time period. What you tend to forget and where most of the money missteps happens are the months after the holidays. Of course, you know most consumers tend to find those after the holiday sales when you save 70 percent off Christmas decorations, for instance, or also the retailers and their propensity to discount clothing to clean off the shelves of their winter gear and start prepping for spring. But beyond just the merchandise and buying, mistakes after the...

Ten benefits of eating at home21 Jun 2016 | 8:28 pmEating at home instead of eating out is beneficial in a number of ways … Our rural-ish county is slowly catching up to the 21st century. It was only a few years ago that we got a Walmart, and this year we got a Starbucks. The choice of restaurants has been a bit sparse compared with surrounding cities that have a more built-up commercial area. We've had a few sit-down restaurants but the only chain places to speak of have been fast-food places. Eating at home is a good option One of the better ones was an Indian restaurant. It's the only restaurant I've been in that the owner has flat-out refused to give someone more than moderately-spicy food on their first visit. Even after I've gotten food that was...
Credit card rewards the right way16 Jun 2016 | 11:19 pmCredit card rewards are a bonus for responsible use. Don't forget that … Credit card rewards are a regular part of our monthly financial activities. With very few exceptions, we get at least 1% off of each purchase we make with our primary credit cards. In addition to this, there can be bonuses on sign-ups for new cards. Earn credit card rewards without shooting yourself in the foot From the bank's perspective, the reason for offering rewards on purchases is simple: to get you to use the card. Doing this is happy for them in a few ways:

Triggered merchant fees. The bank charges the merchant when you purchase with a credit card. (You shouldn't be paying for these directly, though!)

Nine yard sale tricks you probably already know (but what the hey)4 Jun 2016 | 10:02 pmYard sale shoppers don't leave home without their bag of tricks.

Two of them were in our subdivision, so it would have been silly to miss those. Each sale is unique, just like each family running the yard sale is unique. Each sale has its own flavor and its own deals (or lack thereof), so each presents its own challenges and fun. Yard sale tricks you've probably heard of but why not Here are a few tricks we used at this past weekend's yard sales to help us get some great deals:

What will you do if there are no more plastic grocery bags?20 Jun 2016 | 9:31 amThe threat of making them illegal has been around for years. I first wrote about it well over 10 years ago. Nothing happened then and nothing happened the next time I heard about it. It's back again. I won't say nothing will happen, because someone keeps trying. What will you do if there are no more plastic bags? They've become such a part of my household that I would hate to do without! I
Independence Day, USA18 Jun 2016 | 4:57 amIts not so far away! The Fourth of July is probably the most frugal of holidays - or it could be, anyway. If yours is filled with expensive carnival rides and even more expensive fireworks, it might not be. Those two things are tradition for many families, so I won't tell you to forget them, but I will tell you to use common sense when paying for them. Buy a "bracelet" if they sell them, to get
My Money, Your Money, Our Money14 Jun 2016 | 9:01 amEven in this age of equality, women generally still have a better grasp (not to be sexist, just stating a generality!) of what is required daily to run a household, from safety pins to bath towels and from how many apples are in the refrigerator to who took the last shower. Thus, it makes sense for whoever fits this role to put the frugal eye on the countless ways a household wastes or makes
Cut Your Water Costs11 Jun 2016 | 1:33 pmMost of us are entering into a season of high water use. Besides watering lawns and gardens, kiddie pools need filling, we take more showers and baths because of outdoor activities, and we tend to want to play in water because of the heat. Along with recent increases in utility bills, water bills will no doubt be rising in the near future so now is the time to get a head start on saving.

Even a few hours a week can make a difference in

Summer Date Night Look24 Jun 2016 | 1:40 pmYankee Bill and I don't go out much on honest to goodness, just the two of us dates very often. It's not that we neglect each other–we relax in the hot tub as a couple a few nights a week, watch tv together for an hour or so most evenings, and in the summer enjoy some quiet time together on the front porch in the evenings. It's just the "Let's get dressed up and go out to dinner and a movie" type thing that is infrequent. One of the times each year we DO make time for a date night is when we go on vacation as a family up in the Adirondacks each summer. My mother in law rents a cabin on Big Moose Lake for a month in the summer and invites us up to share a week with her. It's become a tradition that...
4th of July for your Front Door24 Jun 2016 | 12:00 pmIt's time to decorate for the 4th of July and my front door was looking pretty sad: Blah. Walmart had asked me to share an idea for outside decorating, so I headed off to my local store to see what I could find. They had a good variety of inexpensive decorations on a couple of end caps to choose from. I couldn't make up my mind so I picked up a couple of red, white and blue tinsel wreaths to try. They were cute, but lacked the visual impact I was looking for, especially when you took a few steps back from the porch. I love my beautiful old wrap around porch, but it pretty much ensures my front door is in shadow 90% of the time. See that last picture? The wreath barely "reads" from the front...

Saving Bacon Grease — Make Do and Mend21 Jun 2016 | 7:48 amBacon is wonderful stuff. Even more wonderful is the organic bacon I get from a local farm where I buy a pig (well, the meat part of a pig) every year or so. Mmmm. It's amazing. But the bacon itself isn't the only thing that's amazing–you've also got the bacon grease. Bon Appetite calls bacon grease "Your Kitchen's Liquid Gold". Just a generation or two ago this was considered an important culinary resource. Actually most rendered fat was considered valuable, lard from pigs, tallow from cows, schmaltz from chickens, duck fat from. . .well. . . ducks. . . The heart health scare in the 1980's and 1990's turned folks off from animal fats of all kinds. Now the tide is turning. Sources such as the...

Crockpot Cinnamon Monkey Bread | Easy Weekend Breakfast!25 Jun 2016 | 5:00 pmThere are 2 scents that are guaranteed to get my family out of bed on those lazy weekend mornings – the smell of bacon frying and the smell of cinnamon. The first one I try to avoid because it seems like every time I fry bacon, the smell lingers in the house for 2 days (and I am one of the few people who doesn't like bacon). But cinnamon? That is one scent that I don't mind and in fact, love and this Crockpot Cinnamon Monkey Bread smells just heavenly while it is cooking and gets my kids running down the steps yelling "What is that? When will it be ready?" I am slowly making more and more breakfasts in my crockpot. The first time I made crockpot steel cut oats with apples & cinnamon, it was an eye-opener...

Homemade Body Scrub with Lemon and Honey21 Jun 2016 | 7:00 amThis homemade body scrub will gently exfoliate your skin, while also deeply moisturizing it. The lemon scent will invigorate you as well! Over the past few years, I have really enjoyed making making more things from scratch. I am now making my own lip balm, my own homemade body butter and This homemade foot scrub really ups the moisture factor! I made my first DIY body scrub about 2 years ago and, while it has worked well for me, I am wanted to really boost the benefit to my skin from using a homemade body scrub. This recipe isn't much different that my original recipe….we are just switching out the coconut oil for some olive oil and adding in some honey. Why the change? Both olive oil and honey are...
Crockpot Chicken Tacos + More Easy Healthy Recipes18 Jun 2016 | 10:47 amWhen people think of "easy healthy recipes", tacos don't usually come to mind. That's because they haven't tried these Crockpot Chicken Tacos! Tacos can really be and healthy or as unhealthy as you want them to be. If you use deep-fried taco shells and load them up with beef, cheese and sour cream – then they will be a diet disaster. But swap out the taco shells for flour tortillas, make them with chicken instead of beef and load them with lettuce, tomato and just a little cheese? You end up with a much healthier dinner! To make these Crockpot Chicken Tacos, you will need: INGREDIENTS

1 lb Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts

1 cup Chicken Broth

1 tbsp Chili Powder

1 1/2 tsp Cumin

Mortgage Loan: Everything That You Have to Know27 May 2016 | 9:07 amAh mortgage. It's part of every adult's life to face this huge dilemma: to get a mortgage or to not. Of course we all want to get a property that we can call our own, but is it really worth it to get a loan? Or is it much better if you wait it out and save up before you get your dream property? Waiting out to save can take such a long time and before you know it, you're old and gray and have no idea how to get your property. That's the reason why housing loans are there: to help you acquire your property right away and pay it in the long run. You can now enjoy your property right now. Before you get that important mortgage, we listed down below the things that you have to remember when getting one:...
Is Pet Insurance a Solid Investment or Waste of Cash?12 May 2016 | 4:00 pm� Savvy gals know when an investment is well worth it (think fringed boots) and when it's best to pass. But there are other investments that may be well-worth the money – or not – depending on a variety of circumstances. Pet insurance is one of those investments. Unlike human health insurance, you don't have to hunt around for a vet that accepts a certain plan. You pay the vet as you normally would, and then get reimbursed by the insurance company. If your pet stays 100-percent healthy, happy and accident-free, you may be able to get away without pet insurance. But pet health insurance could also come to the rescue if your pet ever needs an expensive medical procedure, requires costly ongoing care...
Superfoods – What are they and what makes them so super?22 Mar 2016 | 10:07 pmA very important question, since everybody who is interested in a healthy diet will sooner or later stumble across super foods. As a matter of fact – there is no scientific definition. "Superfood" is actually a buzzword, which is hyped by the marketing industry. But let's take a closer look at these presumably super foods. Are superfoods all smoke and mirrors or do they really have a significant impact on our health? This short article will give you some insights. Super Food – nutrition or medicine? The term "superfood" includes all types of foods that have a high concentration of nutrients, like vitamins, minerals, anti-oxidants and trace elements. Thus, eating these superfoods can have a...
Do You Rely on Your Husband's Investments? Let's Rethink That10 Mar 2016 | 8:06 amEven though American women lead major nonprofits, have headed major corporations or served as high executives, and run household budgets, they often rely on their husband's investments instead of choosing their own. While it's not wrong to enjoy the fruits of your husband's labor, you can experience more financial stability and confidence if you choose the investments that will help you in the long term. A Brief History About half a century ago, when a male spouse died, the woman was left to fend for herself. Often, they had no income of their own and no investments. The Social Security check didn't do much to help a widow survive. Thankfully, that situation has changed in the last 50 years, but...

How to Make Chia Pudding24 Jun 2016 | 2:01 pmI have a huge bag of chia seeds that I have been meaning to use up. I usually use them in Kombucha but I haven't made very much since we moved to our homestead. Go figure! Anyway chia pudding sounded good but how exactly do you make it? The video below shows you how step by step. I love how simple it is! You only need a handful of common ingredients and some time in the fridge to let it soak. Plus you make it in my fave…mason jars! This recipe will be perfect for taking to work for breakfast. Fix it at night and pack it the next morning. Yum! The post How to Make Chia Pudding appeared first on Nature Moms Blog.
Fiberlicious Muffins With Apple and Flax22 Jun 2016 | 12:50 pmHere is a recipe that I made this morning. Not only are these muffins perfect for breakfast but they are sooo yummy and good for you too. They are a great source of whole grains and high fiber, and the flaxseed provides Omega-3 oils. They were a big hit with my whole family. Even when the kids were little they scarfed these down. Fiberlicious Flax Apple Muffins 1 cup Multigrain cereal with Flaxseed and Quinoa ( I use Hodgson Mills brand) 1 cup organic, unbleached flour 1 Tbsp. baking powder 1/2 tsp. baking soda 1/2 cup organic sugar or coconut sugar 1 cup shredded organic carrots 1 cup peeled and chopped organic apples 1/2 cup organic milk 2 organic eggs (free range) 1/4 cup avocado or coconut oil 1/2 cup...
Summer Reading List – Bricking It17 Jun 2016 | 11:00 pmI bought and read (or rather listened to) this book because it was a daily deal from Audible. I used to be a member of Audible because I adore audiobooks and I have earbuds in my ears roughly 40 hours a week. I am not a member anymore because I am pinching pennies but I still get their daily deals in my email inbox. Everyday they offer a new audiobook for a super low price…usually $2.95 to $4.95. Bricking It Book Review I look at the daily deals, read the reviews, and 9 times out of 10 I pass. Bricking It though just sounded like a winner based upon the reviews and oh it was. It was pure joy from start to finish. The story is basically about a brother and sister who inherit a very old, very neglected...
Frugal Friday – Every Dollar and Focus Groups16 Jun 2016 | 11:00 pmIt has been awhile since I did a frugal friday share but I am really trying to amp up my frugality and finance savvy recently. Primarily I am so obsessed with all things finances because we bought our house last year a bit before we were ready. We caught house fever as Dave Ramsey would say. We let emotions and a wee bit of anger about our rent going up make us jump into a big decision. I love our house and I do not think we have bought a money pit or anything but we just should have waited until we met some other financial goals first. In the past six months I have managed to pay off both of my cars, build up an emergency fund, cash flow a vacation to Florida (Disney & Universal), and pay down some other...
Fun Funky Molds for Homemade Popsicles15 Jun 2016 | 12:52 pmWhy Popsicle Molds? Do I even have to tell you how fast kids can go through popsicles in warm weather months? I doubt it! Heck, they like popsicles all year long. If you are relying on store bought popsicles then you are wasting money on something that you could easily make yourself. You are also putting the health of your kids in questionable hands because conventional popsicles have loads of refined sugar and synthetic dyes. Opt to make popsicles yourself with DIY popsicle molds and you can keep your kids in frosty treats all summer with minimal expense. For pennies you can make "healthier-for-you treats that kids and adults will love. You won't even have to worry about finding your yard littered with...

Save More Big Money At Menards With These Tips21 Jun 2016 | 9:07 amMenards is home improvement store, similar to Lowe's or Home Depot, with locations in the Midwest.

Read eSalon Reviews Before Using16 Jun 2016 | 1:49 pm*I was not paid for this post since I did not personally review the product. I've been blessed with good genes as my mother and grandmothers both didn't get gray hairs until later in life. And I *swear* that I don't have any grays either, but my cosmetologist daughter, Macy, tells me otherwise. When she needed a model for beauty school and needed new clients at her first job, she convinced me that I needed to color my hair. So, of course, I had to do my motherly duties. When I was approached to be a blogger for the eSalon Blog Tour Campaign through the Mom It Forward Blogger Network, I thought it was a good opportunity as they offered me not only free product to review, but compensation* as well (this...
Kim Reviews The Squatty Potty + 30% Off Squatty Potty Coupon Code Offer13 Jun 2016 | 2:14 pmHow many of you have given up your opportunity to go first when playing Cards Against Humanity because you didn't want to admit to the last time you pooped? Everybody poops, yet nobody wants to talk about it. Me included. And then "this unicorn changed the way I poop" or so this awesome video is titled… I'm one of those people that can't go #2 unless I'm at home. So if I'm traveling for six days, I seriously do not poop for six days. I don't think it's parcopresis (the fear of pooping in public); I just think my body is, well, a home body. That was until I visited my friend, Lisa, in San Francisco. When I saw that she had a Squatty Potty in her bathroom, I immediately felt the need to test that thing...
Tips For Packing Carry On Luggage1 Jun 2016 | 1:36 pmWith most airlines charging for checked bags (thank you Southwest for not), I've been trying to carry on my luggage more often, not only to save money, but time. It takes extra time in the airport to stand in line to check your bags (by printing my ticket ahead of time or using an e-ticket, I can go straight to security). Then it usually takes quite awhile to wait for your bags at baggage claim when you arrive at your destination. And if you don't have TSA Pre-Check yet, I highly advise it. I found the following video on Mode that offers packing tips for family travel, but I found some useful tips for traveling alone as well. Top Packing Tip Takeaways

Engagement rings: the 10 best ways to save money20 Jun 2016 | 6:20 pmThe popular diamond engagement ring was, famously, invented by a ad campaign at a time when the market was flooded with the gems. The price of diamonds was tumbling in the late 1940s when a New York advertising agency "set out to persuade young men that diamonds (and only diamonds) were synonymous with romance, and that the measure of a man's love (and even his personal and professional success) was directly proportional to the size and quality of the diamond he purchased." Seventy years later, this clever etiquette prevails: not just the idea that when it comes to engagement rings, diamonds are forever, but also the idea that the "correct" price for an engagement ring is two months' salary. The thing is,...
Thrifty Recipe of the Week: Broad Bean Pesto4 Jun 2016 | 5:43 pmIt isn't really pesto in the true Italian sense, but 'Broad Bean Paste' doesn't do this delicious stuff justice. And there are so many things you can do with a jar of broad bean pesto in all its garlicky, lemony loveliness: stir it into pasta as a sauce, spread it on toast or serve on the side with grilled fish or vegetables. The jar pictured above cost less than £1 to make. You can make it from frozen broad beans – the supermarkets sell 650g bags for around £1, in the freezer aisle – but I always snap up the fresh beans at this time of year. They often seem to end up in the discount section with yellow woopsie stickers: I think that in 2016, the pods put people off. I don't know why: it doesn't take...
Ice cube trays: how do you use yours?21 May 2016 | 4:23 pmIce cube trays: who knew they were useful for so much more than ice cubes? Here in the Thrifty House, they help to reduce food waste – thus saving money on our monthly grocery bill. I started out by freezing homegrown herbs into ice cube trays, preserved in a little water, when winter rolled in and my herb garden died away. From there, it mushroomed. Now, as you can see, I use ice cube trays to store various odds and ends in the freezer. You know those jars, packets and cartons of perishable foodstuffs? The ones bearing legends such as, 'once opened, consume within three days?' Like a lot of cooks, I would open them up to use small amounts as recipes demanded – and then end up binning the rest of the...
The Financial Admin Diet: Little & Often16 May 2016 | 4:04 pmHow do you keep your finances on track? The Little Guide to Easy Financial Admin is a pocket-sized book, filled with quick and easy tips and hints. It is free to download from Standard Life Savings, who asked me to share some of my must-dos. The book comes on the heels of new research showing that in the UK, 10% of people don't review their finances. In fact, just 26% of us regularly put time aside to keep their bank accounts, savings and investments in check. The rest of us appear to snatch time when we can. Admin of any kind can be dreary, but it pays to take a few minutes out of your day to look after your money. I have learned – the hard way – that unless I pull my finger out and keep the household...
Lacura Makeup: grab it while it's on special19 Apr 2016 | 5:36 pmLacura makeup is currently an Aldi Specialbuy: from creams all the way through to lip tints and mascara. It's always pot luck what you are going to find, but I came away with a decent haul when I visited my local store at the weekend. I've been a fan of Aldi's Lacura range for a long time: in fact, I first posted about it eight years ago (yikes), recommending the under-eye concealer as a cut-price dupe for YSL Touche Eclat. (Side note: wow, that was a short blog post. Amazing what you could get away with pre-Twitter.) I'm very fussy about budget makeup – in that I hate most of it. The mascaras flake, the lipsticks don't stick and why are all the powders so shimmery a la Posh Spice? So when I find a budget...

How to Look Younger Without Plastic Surgery, Make Up or Weight Loss22 Jun 2016 | 6:43 amIf surgeon's scalpels and Botox fill you with fear there are less drastic approaches to looking and feeling younger that also do not include "snake oil" products or potions. Scientists now believe up to 40 per cent of how we age is within our power to slow down.��Dr. Christopher Calapai, D.O. is an NYC Osteopathic Physician board certified in family medicine and anti-aging medicine. Here are 10 of his suggestions:1)Crow's FeetStop smoking 'Cigarettes contain some 40,000 toxins, each deposited directly into the DNA of skin cells each time you take a drag,' says Dr. Calapai.

Leaving Victoria and Heading Towards Whistler21 Jun 2016 | 8:50 pmWe caught the ferry this morning out of Victoria and headed back to Vancouver, which was about 45 minutes from hotel to ferry, then and hour and a half on the ferry to Vancouver, then about another half hour at least to leave out of the city. Once out of the city we hit the beautiful Sea To Sky Highway which is very nice.�Stopped at the Britannia Mine Museum as well. I thought it would be a great place for Gerry to see having worked in the mine and FOR the mine. Britannia Mine was an old copper mine and mill, shut down in the 70's. While there we got to go on an underground tour in a man carrier, and see the mill, as well as pan for gold- which really is time consuming looking for bits of rocks. Plus I give...

How to Tell if Your Child is Grinding Their Teeth22 May 2016 | 6:28 pmTeeth grinding, medically known as bruxism, is more common in children than you might think. In fact, it's estimated that up to one third of children suffer from this condition, usually intermittently (which means that it goes away by itself). But in cases where your child's teeth grinding develops into a habit, the effects can be harmful, leading to chipped tooth enamel, facial sensitivity, and even jaw problems, including temporomandibular joint disease (TMJ). If that happens, you should consult with a dentist about using a dental night guard to protect their teeth. Many cases of bruxism go unnoticed, as children usually grind their teeth at night and, unless the sound of their clenching is strong...

LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Character Encyclopedia for $824 Jun 2016 | 12:00 pmI'm always on the lookout for items to add to my gift closet, and I know that my 7-year-old son would love this one: the LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Character Encyclopedia is currently at its lowest price ever on Amazon of $8.35.

It is currently slightly cheaper at Walmart.com ($8.25), but you'll need to choose free store pickup or pay for shipping. And let me tell ya, I am not driving to Walmart just to save a measly 10¢. However, I do have a Prime...

If you only want the...

No Churn Reeses Ice Cream24 Jun 2016 | 6:46 pmWe love to make our own ice cream! At our house making ice cream comes hand in hand with a movie night.

4 Ways To Detox From Overspending17 Jun 2016 | 5:00 amI don't know about you, but my spending seems to come in waves. There will be times I don't buy anything for weeks, and then, all of a sudden it seems like I have a giant credit card bill. Sometimes it's due to a life change, a seasonal change or I find some wiggle room in my budget and decide it's time to finally tackle a DIY project at home or revamp my wardrobe. Spending more than you typically do can be part of the normal ebb and flow of life that's necessary to keep your sanity intact, but if you're consistently busting your budget and you feel out of whack with your finances, it may be time to reel it in.

10 Ways to Put Your Pension to Work24 Jun 2016 | 10:00 amNo one wants to hear you complain about putting your pension to work for you. Really; it's like complaining that someone accidentally got dirt on the floor of your brand new Lamborghini because she did not wipe off the bottom of her 6-inch diamond-studded Christian Louboutin heels when you went to George Clooney's house for a cocktail party and dinner with the Pope, Mother Theresa and Jesus to discuss volunteering your time to help the homeless children of the world build homes in which they can live as they attend college free of charge to become doctors and nurses and educators.

Credit Cards That Will Let You See Your FICO Score for Free24 Jun 2016 | 8:00 amYour credit score is the most important number in your life. It's the number that determines whether or not you can buy a home or a car, get a loan or get a decent interest rate on any borrowed funds. Your credit score is not something you want to treat poorly or forget is important. You need to know that this score is the most important number in your life if you don't have the cash to pay for the things you want and need otherwise. Because this number is so important in your life, you should check it regularly. Once or twice a year is usually sufficient, and you're entitled to free credit reports from every major credit bureau free of charge. However, you can actually check your score more often if...
Financial Priorities You Should Line Up Before Having Kids24 Jun 2016 | 6:00 amKids are expensive; and there is no way around that. It does not matter what you do; kids are expensive. I tell my husband all the time I think that all these women who are looking to give birth in their bathtubs and with midwives rather than doctors are just looking for a way to have more kids for less money, and it's just not going to work. Sure, it might mean fewer hospital expenses, but that's not where having a baby is expensive. Okay, it's not cheap, but insurance does cover most of it, there is very little out-of-pocket expense, and there is virtually no reason that you cannot have a baby in a hospital for next to nothing – but I digress since that is not what we are discussing. Go ahead and...

As a result, she has become a familiar face on American TV screens, not because of any single role but because of all of the appearances that she has made over the course of years and years. Naturally, since she has had such a varied career, it should come as no surprise to learn that she has a number of interesting stories of her own, which should provide plenty of attraction for those who are curious about her career.

The Potential Risks of Buying a Condominium21 Jun 2016 | 6:57 amAs with any great and large investment, buying a property comes with its shares of potential pitfalls and considerations. A condo can become a purchase that changes your life, and the life of your children. It can hold value, become a long-term place of residence, or even a source of income. Or, it can become a liability, a bad investment, a short-sighted and unfortunate way to spend money. Not all buildings are created equal. It's up to you as the potential buyer to keep an open eye and a wary mind when making your purchasing decision, so you make the best choice for your present and your future – and to do that, you need to make sure all cards are open and on the table.

Invest in Individual Stocks, But Only When You've Done Your Homework11 Jun 2016 | 6:00 amThe stock market is a massive and ever-evolving miasma of possibilities. For beginning investors – or for experienced investors for that matter – having true insight about the markets is a difficult thing. All you have to do is read Michael Lewis' Flash Boys to get an idea about the forces which stabilize the markets, and also throw it into chaos. For the everyday investor, the fickle nature of the world markets, as well as its inscrutable complexity, are reasons that Diversification is advocated at every turn. Diversification is important because it accounts for some of the ebbs and flows of the market, keeping the individual investor relatively secure. In an ideal situation, a single portfolio will...
The Value of One Dollar Around the World10 Jun 2016 | 6:00 amSince the early 2000's, traveling Americans have had to endure steep costs due to the struggling value of the U.S. Dollar. Not that long ago the exchange rate for the British pound and the Euro was 2:1. With the economic state the dollar was in it made it difficult for Americans to travel to many destinations unless they had deeper pockets or were backpacking across the country, staying in hostels. Starting in 2015, American travelers began to see a change in the trend and cost of their vacations and getaways. The dollar began to rise in value against most currencies of the world, becoming one of the strongest. With this wonderful change in the buying power of the dollar, now is the time to scratch the...

How to Have a Beautiful Yard on a Budget24 Jun 2016 | 4:00 amThis is a Guest Post from Cherie at Queen of Free I have very few irrational fears. I've done all kinds of crazy things in 39 years of life. I've bungee jumped twice. I've flown across the country by myself. I've ridden my bike 160 miles in one day – for fun, more than once. But there is one thing that creep me out in fifteen seconds flat – a lawn ornament. It doesn't matter if it's children merrily playing in a fountain or a Victorian gazing ball. I'm not a big fan of ceramic painted or unpainted lawn ornaments. Except for gnomes. Arguably the most unsettling of all, the short bearded men with red pointy hats make me smile every single time I see them. And so I have started a small...
Slow Cooker Stuffed Peppers22 Jun 2016 | 4:00 amIt is always good to have a few recipes that you can whip up out of the pantry staples you already have on hand.

And if the recipe happens to ALSO be a family favorite that your kids and husband just love? Well then quite frankly, that's a recipe you just can't live without. These slow cooker stuffed peppers literally come together in just minutes, including the time it takes to brown the vegetarian crumbles! (For a meaty version, use ground beef instead of vegetarian crumbles.) I love them because they are not only...
How to Best Use Your Storage Space20 Jun 2016 | 4:00 amDo you ever feel like your house is simply stuffed to the gills? Or find yourself frequently looking for some new way of organizing your closets, wondering how to best use your storage space? Do you ever feel like you are always organizing but never actually getting organized? Do you ever wonder how some people seem to make staying organized look so effortless, even with much less space to work with? Believe it or not, most of us, our storage problem is NOT an organizational problem. It's not that we don't have enough closet space, or that we haven't figured out the right system. It's not that we don't have the right boxes or bins or baskets to put everything in. Our problem is too much...
How to Negotiate a Raise17 Jun 2016 | 4:00 amWhether you work from home part-time or go to an office forty hours a week, chances are, you'll probably reach a point in your life where you'll want more pay for your work. If you're anything like me, the prospect of walking up to someone and saying you deserve more money probably seems a little daunting most of the time. After all It just isn't a comfortable topic for most of us. Asking for more money seems frightening. We're taught to be satisfied with what we have. We're often concerned about the needs of our families, our spouse, and those around us—and how we can meet those needs—but yet, we feel selfish trying to meet our own needs monetarily.

How to Create a Family Record Book23 Jun 2016 | 6:00 amI have always been a bit of a planner. I like to know what's happening and what to expect. I'm always the one in our family who plays the devil's advocate, who considers the "what ifs" of all kinds of situations. A few years ago, all that "what if" thinking led me to create my "Just In Case" file. This was a small photo album which I filled with sheets of information on everything from where our wills were located to passwords for voice mail. The "Just In Case" file is there to help my loved ones sort through our finances and household operations should something ever happen to me. I know… It's a morbid thought.

Things To Consider When Buying a Home9 Jun 2016 | 6:00 amI will admit it. Sometimes I watch "House Hunters" on HGTV. It's a guilty pleasure of mine. It's a chance to sneak a peek at other people's homes and for a moment, consider what it might be like to shop for a $400,000 home in St. Louis. For a half hour, I can make snap judgements on clean modern houses or adorable condos without leaving my living room. But mostly I can have a bit of fun making some snap judgments about people's decision-making skills when buying a home. They want more space. (Most people just need less stuff.) They want granite countertops. (Expensive and hard to maintain.) They want stainless steel appliances. (Hard to keep clean.) They want an open concept...
An Immigrant Worries24 Jun 2016 | 4:19 pm"I've been in this country for sixteen years and people still call me an immigrant," the cabbie said with a shake of his head and a soft smile. News about Britain's vote to leave the E.U. wound Ibrahim up. The radio softly hummed the discussion on the Brian Leherer Show, on WNYC, about why the Brits made the choice and what happens next and it made him talkative, almost eager to reach out. "Nobody likes immigrants, here or in the U.K. or Europe," he said without bitterness. So what do you say to that? New York may be a city of immigrants, but the ugly mood in the country and the world makes it hard to refute the perception that try as you might to belong, you can't shake "foreignness." Outsider...

We Mourn The Orlando Victims12 Jun 2016 | 5:12 pmWe mourn the Orlando victims and try to make sense of the senseless. We stand with President Obama and believe the people of the United States need to make serious decisions about the ease with which we sell and buy guns in this country.

Curb On Payday Lending2 Jun 2016 | 7:37 amby Barbara Nevins Taylor Borrowing money when you need it should not lead to an endless downward spiral of debt. That's why the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB) proposed a new rule that would limit high fees, require lenders to make sure that borrowers can repay without borrowing again to pay off the original loan, and put a curb on payday lending. About 16,000 payday lending stores and an unknown number of online lenders offer short-term loans, often for two weeks, at interest rates as high as 390 percent. The loan terms make the original loan difficult to repay and one in four loans lead to a new loan aimed at repaying the first one. CFPB Director Richard Cordray, in a speech at a hearing...
Credit Reporting Companies Frustrate Consumers24 May 2016 | 5:47 pmIf you find yourself frustrated trying to straighten out mistakes on your credit report, you have a lot of company. Credit reporting companies continue to generate complaints to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). The CFPB's latest monthly report found that 77 percent of consumer complaints involve difficulty removing incorrect information from credit reports. CFPB Director Richard Cordray said, "Credit reports are the foundation of consumers' financial lives. We will continue to work to ensure that credit report disputes are investigated, errors are fixed, and consumers are treated fairly." What's happening now seems far from fair. People complain that debts appear that have already...

How To Resell Clothes From Outlet Malls6 Jun 2016 | 8:02 pmMost of my blog posts up to this point have concentrated on reselling used items for profit. This post is different (finally!).

Flipping Houses The Easy Way31 May 2016 | 5:04 pmEver since the house bubble, it seems like all anyone talks about is flipping houses. You see a dozen shows on TV about "fixer uppers" or "reno property" or "income property" and no doubt you hear it from your friends about how so and so is making a killing flipping houses. I'll admit I'm a little bit bias. I've started Flippingincome.com to show people there are a million things to flip but I've secluded houses simply because I felt most people don't have the knowledge and more importantly the money to flip houses. Recently I've come to the conclusion that I shouldn't make such assumptions, I should simply share information on all things that can be flipped. So from what I've gathered, these are...

I am not going cheap, but I wanted to find a good wine at a great price, and I have found that Aldi has some fantastic wines that have won some awards. I normally do not purchase wines that have awards. But I have heard so much talk about Aldi and their wines. I was so surprised, when I tasted them. I am a $25.00 a bottle wine gal. But now that I am more budget conscious I was willing to give Aldi a go. I am also that type of girl that also gets an headache from cheap wine. Why I don't know. I gave the following wines a go-:

El Toro Macho Tempranillo and the El Toro Reserva.

Week 2 Groceries3 Jun 2016 | 2:00 amWeek 2 Still on groceries as this is an huge expense. I have decided this week. I am only doing three shops per month. Therefore cutting out one shop this month of $105.00. Using only what is in the pantry. I probably have enough food to feed us for 2-3 weeks without doing any shopping. The options would be every boring though after two weeks. Therefore this would make my monthly budget of groceries of $305.00. That would be roughly $75.00 a week for an family of four. I am therefore keeping an shopping list, and only going off this. I use the app on my phone, called out of milk and adding items to the list as I run out of them, therefore I am only going to the shops once a week. I am able to keep my...
Frugal Free and Forty Vegetable Curry3 Jun 2016 | 12:24 amTonight we are having slowed cooked vegetables with an prepared curry powder. This is one of the cheapest meals you can have. Every Friday is Frugal Friday in our house. Meals so not need to be expensive. This meal would cost us about $5.00 at the most to make. I use whatever vegetables, I have on hand and a packet of Paarampara Biryrani Spice Mix. This would feed our family of four and we would have left overs. Being Frugal, doesn't need to be expensive, but it can still be healthy. Eating simply is the key. Preparing fresh food and eating more vegetables and less meat is what you nbe frugal and is what our diets need too.
