Little bit of background-DH and I are calling 2010 the Year of Financial Control. We have goals to pay off debt, increase our savings, and editing our budget. Since we have set these goals for 2010. I am also a fan of the MSN group Women in Red for accountability and money saving ideas. I'm going to be blogging about the various activities to save money, decrease bills, and earn extra dollars. I will be tracking my total savings from coupons and my ebates earnings to see how much I can save this year toward our goals.
If anyone has suggestions for other programs they use besides ebates I'd definitely be interested to hear your thoughts.
2010 Goals
1. Lose 30 lbs. by October by eating healthy and working out min. 5 times week min 1 hour
2. Save $15,000 in our savings account for various funds.
3. Pay off minimum $7,000 credit card debt.
4. Do monthly review with DH of budget/spending, savings, and 401K.

ReplyDeleteThanks Precious! I'm excited to be in your Money Saving Challenge it will definitely help make them attainable
ReplyDeleteHi! I saw you over on the Women in Red board. I've just started lurking on the GC thread. I've used Ebates for a long time but just found out about Shopathome.com. They seem to have the same or higher % rebates. Also, you get rebates after $20 instead of having to wait quarterly. I made my first purchase through there yesterday, so I'll see how it goes. Here is a link.
