Budgeting Tips

I send out an email to my close friends with budgeting tip each week, Ive decided to start putting it on here from now on too. Since I cant see to find time to blog very much lately.

This was this weeks:
If you need coupons such as Lowes, Best Buy or other places pick up an address changing kit at the post office, they have 10% off your next purchase at lowes and best buy!
My cousins boyfriend got Homedepot to take the lowes coupon.

Vinegar mixed with water in a spray bottle and sprayed on an odor (such as a dog pee pee accident on carpet) takes the odor out. Yes it does smell like you are coloring Easter Eggs for about an hour, but it really helps after that!

Great places to eat out with your family on a budget:Subway, Split the $5 footlong
Pick up Chinese to go, Share a meal and it will be about $12
CiCis, dont forget them, eat in or to go it SO CHEAP! and Good too! BBQ PIZZA!

Need some help with organizing, have an old dresser that is ugly, or know where to get one for free??? Put it in your garage, basement or extra bedroom (mine is in my dining room with pictures all over the top), use the drawers to store all kinds of things neatly!

The 50 cent spices at walmart are your best friend. Sage, Chopped onions, garlic powder, Onion Salt, Seasoned Salt, Lemon Pepper, etc! They are 50 cents can you believe it???

If you have bananas that are too ripe to eat cook this:
