I just did mine for Jan. today. I will get you know how long it takes. I did have to ask for a new giftcard.

Add $20.00 to the Feb. savings goal

I had a Coach Wristlet that I sold today on Craigslist for $20.00. The money is in my change jar and will go in the bank ASAP. I am thinking tomorrow morning I might be able to stop and add it to my account. I also have another thing I bought to sell. It is a Coach Ipod holder. If it does not sell in the next week or so, then I will return it and put the money I paid for it in my savings account.

Walgreens has some nice rebates this month (Feb) so I picked those up too. I will be doing the free stuff only for awhile.

Jan. Savings Update

Yesterday since I was near the bank. I cashed in my change tin. I had $20.93 in there. It was added straight to my savings account. I also added in 7.93 to boost my total. I will also be rounding off my checkbook and add the extra "change" on a monthly basis.

You will see at the top of my page that I am setting a personal savings goal of $200.00 to my account.

The $200.00 will come from:
1. Change saved
2. Found Money
3. rebates
4. Anything extra I can pull out of my income
5. Items that I sell.

Building up Savings

This month I started to save ALL my change. Well I guess minus the few quarters my mom takes for a paper in the morning. At the end of the month all the change will be cashed in at the bank and added to my savings account. This is a quick - painless way to add at least 10 to 20 to my account every month.

I also have 20% of my Walgreens paycheck automatically deposited into my account every 2 weeks. This is usually $20 or $30 into my account. Another way I don't feel the money going into my account.

I get paid my Child Support on a weekly basis. So every Wednesday I have $25.00 of that money put into my Savings account. So I add at least 100.00 a month to the account.

Right now that money is marked for moving. I am hoping I can move back into my own place no later than July 1.

Finally and UPDATE

Sorry that I am almost a week late in sending my update. Life got busy again. Thank you for all the comments looking for me and I will be blogging more now that I am more settled. So here we go...............

Back in October I moved home with my mom. As some of you may remember my house got broken into well in the beginning of October it was broken in for the second time. There was no way I was going to be living there knowing that every time I went to see the man that I had to worry about my house.

Nov. 1 the ex decided to send my son home. Yes right in the middle of the school semester he came home. Which means he is totally screwed up grade and credit wise. We have worked that out with the school here and he will graduate on time. Took awhile but we got it done. I have also been working with my son to work out the issues that Daddy caused. Since Daddy did not parent him down there at all.

I have decided to return to school in order to earn my Spanish certificate. This is something I have wanted to do for years. All the classes were offered at night so it was not possible when my son was little. I need to take 6 classes in 3 years. I am hoping to have 2 done by June of this year and 2 more done by Dec. Once I have them done I will then take a test to be rated a bilingual status. I am shooting for a 10 which is the highest you can get. All the classes for now are being paid by me, but when I find a new full time job I hope they will pay for some of them.

Frugality is something I really need to work harder at. I have been buying way to many magazines, convience foods and eating out. So this morning I woke up and said no more. I need to get bills paid off and money in the bank. So I am working on making a plan this weekend to get this paid off.

I have been losing weight too and that is always a good thing. So far I lost 35 pounds and working on losing more.

I will be back on Jan. 6th with lots of updates

Thanks for checking in on me. I will update everyone on Jan. 6.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
