Earning


If you are having trouble making ends meet or paying debt, look into ways to earn more!! Either look at changing jobs or taking on an additional part time job to supplement your income.

Eco Friendly......

It's not only easy but fun to make your own household cleaners.....and most can be easily be made w/ingredients you have on hand.

Pick up a couple spray bottles @ the dollar store to further help keep the costs down.

(You'll be surprised what you can accomplish w/vinegar/water/baking soda)

Electricity......

turn your water heater down in the summer months.

If the kids have problems leaving light on.....remove the bulb(if appropriate...for ex my dd was constantly leaving her closet light on...so we took the bulb out)
