Credit Card Debt Update and Savings Update

by

I’m still trying to locate one paystub so I can update my retirement account and then I’ll be ready to post my full net worth for the end of June.

However, I have updated credit card and savings information to share with you right now.

At the end of June, our credit card debt declined just a little bit more to $20,561. We are so close to bringing it under $20,000 that I can taste it. With paying our normal debt payments and with some extra money from my husband’s job, I’m pretty sure we will make that milestone. Imagine a child waiting to come down the stairs on Christmas morning. That’s how I’m feeling right now. I’m waiting for the paychecks to come in to make it happen!

As for our savings accounts, the total now stands at $868. I have to send a big thank you to everyone who opened up a savings account with ING Direct or Virtual Bank using my referral links. I like the referrals where we both get a bonus and you aren’t spending money…you’re going to make money! 🙂

Slowly, I’m coming out of the rut that I’ve been in for a little while now. I feel good. I feel hopeful. I’m getting things back on track.

Free Coin Counting in Selected Cities on 7-7-07

by

I received an email from Coinstar letting me know that they are offering free coin counting for 7 hours in selected locations in selected cities on July 7th, 2007. There’s a bit of buzz around that date because of the lucky 7-7-7 connection.

The selected cities are Dallas, San Diego, Seattle, Phoenix, St. Louis, Orlando, and Chicago. To find the locations where this promotion is valid, you will need to visit myluckycoinstar.com and figure out a few trivia questions.

If you have some pennies you need counted yet cringe thinking of having a coin counter take a percentage, this could be an ideal time for you to take in your coins after figuring out the locations where it’s free.
