June's Challenge

                                                

                                                           


 
                                             Hello Family How Are You Today?

 Here's an idea with June just around the corner. I thought instead of doing a money challenge month what about a de-clutter month. Let's get rid of the dust collectors, the junk and all the stuff in our house and offices that we can't stand to look at anymore . What do you say Let's make June  the get rid of junk month. I already started a bag of yard sale stuff and stuff for my garage collectors already. Have a Great Cheap Cheetah Day & Save that $$$

Yard Sale Season



                                                         Hello  Family Happy Sunday

Hello Family. Yard sale/Garage sale season is here and here are my thoughts on it. Now is the time to get your money right and hit the yard sales hard and heavy. Because this is the place where your gifts are coming from, Your graduation gifts, wedding gifts, holiday gifts, just because gifts. I have seen people in my area selling brand new stuff for pennies that would make great gifts. So be on the look out for your gifts this year in yard sale/garage sales.

Also have one yourself to so you can get back the money you will be spending at others people's yard sales/garage sales. When your out shopping take your water, something lite to eat and no more then $ 25 to spend. That's what I do so I know in my mind that I can not go over $25 for the day.

Wedding Ideas

                                                  Hello My Family Happy Sunday To You!



                                    Frugal /Cheap Wedding Ideas

1.Borrow framed wedding photos from both side of the family to display at the wedding reception. Print labels that say " Bride's Aunt Polly and Uncle Bob" So that  everyone knows who they are.

2. Consider ordering fresh flowers from your grocery store and making  your own bouquets and table arraignments. Buy a few flowers get  some ribbons and see what you end up with.

3. Make your own food for your reception. Enlist your family help, but it wouldn't take much to make your own. You can make a salad , lasagna and bread, mixed veggie bowls, meatballs will feed 250 people. You can also get a  sheet cake from the big warehouse stores.

4. Look for your wedding dress and your brides maid's dresses in thrift store or off the internet for a better discount. I have seen my local thrift store with a large selection of wedding dresses at $50-100 dollars depending upon the details and the size of the dress.

5. For church decorations be creative and shop at craft stores to see what you can get and do to decorate  the church and reception.  You can get your ribbons, flowers, lace, table cloths designs  at craft stores.  You can ask the people working there what your looking for they might have some great ideas for you.

6. Don't forget your local dollar store for your wine glasses, decorations, plates and dishes, lighting. They have a ton of stuff in their inventory that you can use for your wedding day.

7 Wedding invitation you can search for some nice ones off the internet or make they yourself and go to staples to have them print it up for you. What I am seeing now is that people who are getting married are using  the internet to send the invitations. there by  skipping on the postage fees.

8 You could get married at the courthouse and have a small dinner for just the immediate family at a local all you can eat place. If you just want the basic's for your wedding.

9. For music for your wedding pick a local band or DJ and barter with them for their services. Or get a friend to make you some mixed music  cds and get a cd player  and have one of your guest play DJ for the day. changing the cds when necessary.

10. Look on Craig's list or offer up for items from someone else's wedding that are being sold for cheap.

11. For the reception for your drinks have wines, beers and juice. cut's down on the cost of expensive liquor.

12. If your doing party favors, go simple. Most people do not do much with the party favors from a wedding.  Why not put  candy in a little cute container or small vase with a ribbon around it  by each plate with  a printed paper on them saying date/name of the bride  and groom.

13. Doing your make up and hair for the bride and bridesmaids can be done by doing it yourself or have a friend who's really great with makeup and hair see if they can do it. if you must use a professional see if you can get a group discount. Same with getting your nails done think group discounts.

14.  Taking wedding photos use a professional and try and get a discount if he does the photos  and videos. You can also try and get a photographer that is just starting out I bet his prices would be better then the more seasoned one. 

15. Car services to the wedding. Forget the limos and fancy cars. Have  friends with a nice classic car drive you to the church.  who care what the bride rides up in as long as she get's there on time.

 Just a few Ideas to thing about for your wedding day. Have a Great Cheap Cheetah Day & Save that $$

Lazy

                                                    Hello Family How Are you Today?

Is being lazy costing you money?

I was reading something yesterday about being lazy and here's what it said. By being lazy it's costing you money and this is how.
1. Your are eating out in fast food/restaurants most of the time and not cooking at home.

2. Your buying your kids to many video games and not showing them how to play outside and use their imagination

3. You miss opportunities to make extra money because you don't want to do more then you have to.

4. You leave the investing and saving to others because you could not be so bothered doing it.

5. Buying more gas for our cars instead of taking alternative transportation9 biking, walking, Catch a ride with friends)

6. Buying food we can grow ourselves.

7. Shopping for clothing and such without thinking about the price. You just walk into a store and get what you need no matter the cost.

8. Not paying any attention to our retirement funds & services that our employers offer. Your just winging it until retirement.

9 Not pay attention to our money, Your just throwing money at things just so it could leave you alone.

10. Not paying attention to our health is the biggest waste., Bad health mean spending a lot of money to have your health corrected.

I am sure you can think of more these are just a few that I read about.

                                              Hello My Family. How Are You Today?

                                                     Frugal Gift Ideas For Mom.

Hey family as you know Mothers Day is May 13th. Here are some great and yet inexpensive Gift ideas.

1. Make a Gift Basket full of great smelling bath salts, lotions, perfumes from the dollar store. Wrap the basket in colorful paper and put a nice card on it ( also from the dollar store)

2. Food basket same idea as the gift basket only with foods that your mother likes. You can also throw in a gift card to her favorite supermarket or restaurant.

3. Stamps and notecards or a fancy box of stationary. If your mother likes to write this is a great gift to give her. 

4.Take a family picture buy a nice frame and give it as a gift. Better yet take some funny pictures of the family and put them in a family style picture frame. That way mom will always laugh or smile when she looks at it.

5 Give the most precious gift of all your time. Spend some time with your mother. Take her out to lunch and just talk. There is nothing more precious then spending time with someone that you care about.

     I am sure you have some more ideas for gift giving for Mom  these are just a few that I can think of.
