I’ve been pretty occupied with getting ready for our garage sale and as a result I put our finances on autopilot for a little while. That’s why I haven’t updated my net worth or our debt total yet. I cannot believe what I have been finding while going through everything. I mean, I found clothes that I purchased years ago for my son to grow into. Well, I “remembered” about them a little too late because some are now too small!
Oh, the neatest find so far? I had purchased some rolled paper from a garage sale years ago. I thought my son would love drawing on it and I could set it up so he could roll it out, draw on it and tear off his creation. Again, he was a little young at the time so it sat in a cabinet. I uncovered it, and when I opened it I found a few surprises that the previous owners must have forgotten about as well. I now have a calculator that will work great for my garage sale and I have a hockey puck with a Red Wings player on it. I’m not sure if it’s worth money (it’s from Burger King), but it was pretty neat.
I hope to have my finances updated shortly. I really have to keep the motivation going for my garage sale or it will never get done so I’m giving that priority status right now.
Anyways, here’s a few articles that caught my eye that I hope you enjoy.
JLP pointed out an article that points out a lie often portrayed in the media about credit cards. Very interesting.
Cleverdude shares how they paid off $58,000 of their debt. That’s pretty awesome!
Miel discusses needs versus wants. Besides being a good article, I love the picture of the glass they have for that post!
Have a great weekend everyone!
