So I have been losing track a bit of my other money but a $10 E-GC for Old Navy courtesy of Swagbucks, $14 selling the boys old clothes and $5 pending..
I've been using up pennies. I DON'T like the idea that stores can just "round me up". So I try to have the exact change until I run out of pennies. Dairy Queen had the nerve the other day to tell me that they have declared their store a "penny free zone". I intend to take that up with their head office, since the penny is STILL legal tender in this country! Save your pennies and your dollars will come to you!
That's outrageous! Some people .. :|Quote:

Hoping someone will make this into a 2013 thread soon! Hint Hint Wink Wink!
Hint taken sweetmomma! So sorry I'm behind in updates here but soooo happy to see all of you and your postings on the other money wealth! I too am having super duper run with other money and will share about those soon. What' keeping me busy is that my business has hit a busy period...yay!
I had inquired with a mod re me starting a new thread for 2013 and appending these 2013 posts but it would be a little confusing since thread posts sort by date - my intro post and tips wouldn't show up at the top.
So, I'll start the new thread today and will copy over the new tips and resources over the next week!
Sorry to say that they don't have to take pennies any longer - it's the store's choice.Quote:

This a great idea!! I just switched jobs since my full time nanny job was up, so my kid got stuck in daycare, which costs more! And my hours got cut because i dont want my kidlet in daycare ALLLL day everyday... So we now have a tighter budget!!
**My boyfriend is change crazy and it makes a huge difference to our budget!! Everyday when he gets home he goes through my car and my purse to grab any change that i may have from random coffees or small purchases through the day, and since we live on cash (again for budget purposes) it ads up soo quick! Since October we have over $500 in change, that will be put to going on a vacation, but imagine what else we could do with that money!!
great update!!!...please add them to the new thread: http://forum.smartcanucks.ca/342366-...a/#post5287673
i'll ask a mod to hide this one soon so as not to confuse. thanks!
I just went to SARCAN and received $95 for our bottles and cans. The best part is $83 of these were clear bear bottles that were given to us because some guys were going to dispose of them at our local landfill. Free money for us then!
