Homemaking - It is a Job! Part 2

Sometimes I re-read my posts and I think "what strange person wrote that?" Hello, that would be me. Don't believe me? Read this post that is titled "Homemaking - It is a Job"...doesn't have much to do with my job as a homemaker.

In my opinion one of the BIGGEST things I do to help our family is to try to save money. Whether it's hanging up the laundry, making my own yogurt, walking to the store instead of driving, choosing to drink water instead of coffee or tea, etc.

Here's my question for you today.

What can you do TODAY to save $0.16?

Who cares about $0.16? I DO!!! Well, now I wouldn't spend HOURS trying to save $.16, but a couple of minutes out of my day? Why not?

$0.16 * 365 days per year = $58.40 per year. If you don't care about that amount of money, then by all means send me the money!!!

  3. Stacey - I used to say I got paid in hugs and kisses, but now that my kids are older that doesn't happen as often as it used to.

    I agree Sandra!

  4. Love this post.

    What did I do today to save money?

    I ironed my husband's shirts.
    I baked a loaf of bread.
    I flaked my own oat groats.
    I made 15 cups of homemade granola.

    I have no idea how much money I saved..but I'm sure it was more that $.16!

    But that's why I'm home. Just doing my Job....and it is a "real" job!

  5. Can you tell me how you flake your own oat groats? I haven't heard of that before Ang!

    Little things add up don't they?
