DIY Cabinets & Book Shelves During One-Week Holidays

I was too lazy to wake up this morning to accompany hubby before he left for work.

Perhaps it’s because of the fact that he is going to start his holidays soon. A one-week holidays!

Although he has one-week off, I know he won’t be with me all the time. He will be with his buddies most of the time as they have plans to DIY some cabinets and book shelves.

Well, this is actually a good way to save money.

Buddy Has To Sell Motorhome To Keep Paying Home Mortgage & Credit Card Payments

Poor buddy! He has to sell motorhome of his in order to keep paying his home mortgage, credit card payments and other expenses.

Why didn’t he listen to hubby last year? Last year, hubby had told him to stop using his credit cards and consolidate all the payments into one loan to reduce the monthly payments.

Now that this buddy is unemployed, it’s not sure if he will be approved of any consolidation loan.

Hopefully he can sell the motorhome at a good price and save the money as emergency fund.

There are great deals on clothes for the month of October. You can get shorts and pants and things for 50, sometimes even 60 percent off.

If you don’t mind last years models or maybe even scratches, dents or store displays, then it’s time to start shopping to save money.

Deals, deals, deals. You may have seen deal and clearance signs put up already.

There Are Those Who Can Still Afford A Few Family Vacations Yearly

I envy my blogging pal so much. You know, she gets to enjoy family vacations a few times a year!

Even when the economy is bad, she can still afford a few vacations yearly.

She is now planning her year end vacation to Australia. Wow, I am jealous!

But one thing about her is that she is good at finding holiday deals online to save her money.

Wow! Change To A 42″ Samsung Plasma HDTV

42 Widescreen Plasma HDTVJust got the news from my sister that my uncle had recently changed his 29″ to 42″ Samsung Plasma HDTV. Wow!

I wonder when hubby will change our 21″ to a 42″ plasma TV too. :-)

Of course, so long as our television is still functioning, we won’t change it.

It’s bad economy time, you know. There is a need to use or reuse everything in order to save money.

Let Hubby Buy New York Yankees Tickets

SalesOne of the unexpected expenses I mentioned in my earlier post included hubby’s New York Yankees tickets.

I had been persuading hubby to save money by skipping some matches, but to no avail.

Hubby said if it’s possible that I could keep myself away from sales, then it’s likely that he would skip some matches.

Oops, I don’t think I can skip any sales. :-)

So, I had better let hubby do what he likes.
