Friday Blog Highlight

by

Before I get into the blog highlights this week, I want to mention that Peggy has safely received my copy of The Maui Millionaires. Perhaps she will also discuss her thoughts about the book on her blog. ๐Ÿ™‚

Without further ado…here are a few articles that I found interesting this week:

JLP at AllFinancialMatters discusses how you can call your credit cards to reduce those interest rates.

MyMoneyBlog took a look at how much 200 calories costs.

Antique Mommy has a funny story about something she did with Antique Daddy’s credit card. Well, she tried to do anyways ๐Ÿ™‚

The Carnival of Debt Reduction is over at Money Matters for Life.

Lastly, the Festival of Frugality is at Savvy Steward.

Enjoy!

Man, I Really Need to Work on My Writing…

by

EDIT: It didn’t take long at all before I slipped and used the word “just” on this post. Congrats to Amanda for catching me. Since I only lasted a few days – I may decide to run another contest for something different with the same idea. I think I still need more help with my writing ๐Ÿ˜‰

I noticed that I use the word “just” way too much in my writing, and it’s not necessary to use that word for things could be worded differently. I thought it would be fun to offer someone a little something if you catch me using it.

The first person to comment on a future post where I use the word “just” will receive a $10.00 gift certificate to Amazon.com. The commenter must bring up the fact that I used the word “just” (e.g. Hey, Tricia – I caught you – you said the word, “just” :P) and it must be when I’m writing and not when quoting someone else. I only have one certificate to give away, so once someone catches me…that’s it.

This post and prior posts do not count. It’s just posts from this point forward.

Look – see up there…I used the word “just” ๐Ÿ˜‰

If at the end of the month I haven’t slipped, I will slip on purpose just so someone wins it.

Gosh…I said “just” again.

See what I mean??? ๐Ÿ˜›
