Money Saving Tip-Save Seeds
One way to stretch a budget and be less wasteful is to make sure you use everything. I know you can’t eat all parts of fruits and vegetables but try saving seeds from things like tomatoes and peppers. Even try growing an avocado pit. I even have some apple seeds I’m going to give a try growing in the spring. Best thing you you don’t have to spend any more money because you’re sourcing it from something you’ve already paid for. I call that a win-win for budget smart people.

Monday Motivation-Take a Chance
We all make made decisions and sometimes it makes us nervous about trying something again. Things like starting a business or starting a side hustle. However, as this quote suggests there’s a difference from taking a calculated risk and being rash. Do you research, do your homework and then take that first step.

Money Saving Tip-Let’s Get Baking
The holiday season means one thing, people bake more. Whether it be cookies or breads. Stores know this is prime baking time and hence put things like flour, sugar, butter etc. on sale to pull you into their store. If your budget allows, pick up a few extra items to keep in the freezer or pantry. Even make up some baked things like bread or brownies and store them in the freezer before prices go up again. The final thing you can do to take advantage of sales, is make homemade gifts. A stack of cookies tied with a pretty ribbon. Hot cocoa combined with a mug or a pair…

Money Saving Tip-Black Friday, Make It Work For You
I have to admit I do look forward to Black Friday. During October and early November, I put off buying everyday things because I wait to see what deals I can get on Black Friday. Think about something you’ve been wanting to buy. One item I’m considering is an air fryer. One tip I’ve learned is not to assume just because a store or site has a ‘deal’ that it’s actually a good price. Check what they usually retail for and definitely compare sites. And as an entrepreneur, the thing I like most about Black Friday is lots of things I consider good investments for me go on sale. Things…
