WOW guys! Thanks for all the tips! Seems that I am doing quite a bit of what you guys do, so I seem to be on the right track!
I put money from check right to savings, but that is for a house.. yeah, we're saving for that and a car too..oh and we are expecting another child LOL
However, any cash tips I get from clients I put directly into my own piggy bank and that is nothing but Disney money! Same with change! Tax money goes towards Disney, camp, summer trips, bigger bills, etc... Christmas time bonuses from clients were a HUGE help for this last trip! Paid for all gas, souvenirs and misc.
We also got Disney GC's for everything. Well the kids and I that is, and I will ask for the same this year.
I think my biggest, and I do mean BIGGEST saving FAIL is going out to eat. I'm embarrassed to even say what we spend a month! With that said I have been able to put away up to 2k a month in savings, and never less than 1k a month. That I have to do if we truly want a house, as that is what it will realistically look like once we own a home n our area and then I'll have nothing to save.. That is a whole other thread though, isn't it! ha!
Thank you all so much! I may look into some iphone apps, and ebates, I'm just always SO bad at remembering to start online searching from those apps!
Thank you to whoever mentioned the pampers on
amazon! GREAT to know with baby on the way.. although I may cloth diaper... but I may not at all!
I'm still all ears and appreciate how quick yall replied!
