Did you know things I could go back to school for?
I was telling my husband today about some things I could go back to school for, to save us money in the long run. I can go to dental school so I can work on our teeth, I can go to chiropractic school so I can work on our sports injuries, I can go to cosmetology school so I can give us all hair cuts. Or I can just buy gold online at Golden Eagle as an investment. Of course, if I had enough gold, maybe I wouldn't be trying to save so much money!!

Did You Know How To Save Money on Lunches?
Did you know how to save money on lunches?
I was reading an article today about saving money by packing lunches using reusable containers as opposed to one time use throw away convenience packaging. I admit that I am guilty of this, especially with my teenager. It is hard for him to carry a "lunch box" filled with reusable containers; he has so much already to carry every day. He is good about reusing his brown bags though!
I have seen some really cool reusable lunch boxes that I think younger kids would really like. Although they seem expensive when you first buy them, you can think of the money you will save in the long run. Over the course of a year, you can save nearly $250 per child by not packing "disposable" lunches. For example, buy large containers of yogurt and applesauce and pack in reusable containers. Use thermoses, reusable bags and napkins. Waste generated by disposable lunches is second only to office paper waste generated by schools.
