Coupons

Don't forget about my giveaway for the Sam's gift card ending Monday, June 21.


Most of us are familiar with blogsparks for their great giveaways.  But now they have a website with printable coupons.  http://www.moneymindedmoms.com/  It's very simple to use.  Just check the ones you want to use and at the end click on print.    I used mine yesterday at Wal-mart and didn't have any problems at all.  Some coupons that I have gotten in the mail,  they had never seen before and didn't have a clue what to do with them.  With today's economy we're all looking for ways to save money and not only are there coupons, there is also financial advice.
It  has advice from Suze Orman about making smart money choices and a newsletter that you can sign up for.
There is also money minded tools.  There's debt eliminator it helps you take an honest look at what you owe and offers advice to start eliminating debt.
Expense tracker lets you compare your income with your spending.  Compound interest forecaster helps you to know how much you can afford to save each month.  Average cost basis analyzer,  just for fun, use this calculator to see how certain investments in the market may perform.  Last but not least a mortgage refinance, use it to determine if refinancing your mortgage is a good financial decision.

TSMSS--------Healing Begins

I knew it had been a while since I posted anything, but didn't realize it had been over a month.WOW!!!
Going through some things that I'm not going to get into right now, maybe later.  Just numb and blown-away about them right now.
But this song came on the radio while I was driving home Friday and I thought this pretty well sums it all up.
For more inspirational and uplifing music join Then Sings My Soul Saturday with Amy and the rest of us.
  You won't regret it.
