- Payton was invited to a couple of birthday parties. I had 1 gift in my gift closet but I did have to purchase one. I already had gift bags, tissue paper and cards. No money spent there.
- Payton's birthday was in October. Here is how I saved money on her party and gifts. I used a $10 Walmart egift card that I had earned by doing a survey when purchasing her gift. I compared prices when ordering her birthday cake and went with the cheapest. It was delicious. I made her invitaitions and handed most of them out. Only had to mail a few. I used some items that already had and only had to purchase a few things for goody bags. I also made thank you notes for her to mail.
- My Christmas shopping has officially began. I had purchased a couple of things throughout the year. I purchased 4 Christmas gifts this week using coupons and reward certificates.
- I have to send monthly classroom snacks to school for Payton's 1st grade class. She also enjoys taking bottled water. I purchased some on sale. I also went through her Halloween candy and donated some to her class for specials treats, prize box for good behavior or whatever way her teacher feels is best. We got way to much and I hated to see any go to waste.
- Bryson is finally potting training. So I haven't had to buy as many diapers. Wohooooo :) He had no interest until this past week. Hopefully, no diapers by the end of the month.
- I love to read and I hate to spend money buying books for myself. I have been visiting the library every other week for a few months now. I have been reading great books for FREE!!
What did you do to save/earn money this week?
