Okay, so I know it sounds crazy, but you can make this choice!

The time has come to be smart with your money!  Here are a couple of easy ideas that anyone can use to save a bit~

1)  Never make impulse buys......you dont need that magazine at the checkout stand

2)  When you are grocery shopping......use coupons and always try to buy whatever is on club discount (I use Vons Club)

3)  Try skipping the department stores and instead hit up Nordstrom Rack............same things, but 1/2 the price

4)  Avoid going to Target every week...seriously you end up going in for a couple of things and spend $500 on a lot of stuff you don't need 

5) Join retaurant websites and get free meals.......California Pizza Kitchen, Sammys, Red Robin and Islands are a few that send free b-day meals

This is just a few ideas to get the ball rolling.  Once you get hooked on seeing how much money you can save you will be mad that you havent been doing this for years.  Be aware of where your money is going!

Keep spending, but spend wisely

Well, school is starting and that means Soccer Mom, Room Mom, PTA and all of the the other amazing things that we as Moms and Dads must juggle. Keep checking back here for great tips and tricks to make all of these things fun and exciting.

1) If it is your turn for soccer snack......bring Otter Pops.  They can be kept in a cooler with ice, and are self contained (barely any mess). If they dont want to eat it now they can take it home and put it back in the freezer. 

2) Skip the Lemonade Stand.....have an Otter Pop stand.  They are super inexpensive and kids love them.  Now they also have Tropical Fruit Flavors.
