Here are additional, specific ways we saved and earned this week.

This week’s “How We Saved and Earned” list may not seem very large compared to previous posts, but we are still implementing many of the things we shared before, such as draft dodgers, “Just Make DO Challenge“, aprons, leftovers, back to back baking, etc… For a look back at those posts click here.
I also need to mention that we experienced a huge setback to our current emergency fund with the breakdown and repair of our furnace. A story I share here.

26 Very Simple Ways We Saved & Earned This Week
Last week’s 25 Ways We Saved had such a great response, so I decided to begin sharing our weekly saving and earning methods with you, each Sunday.
It will help me stay accountable to our goal of saving $5,000-$10,000 this year, and might even encourage or help some of you.
None of the things we do are challenging or earth shattering, and I have seriously considered skipping some of them. BUT after deeper consideration (and prayer) I felt led to include them and encourage others.

Have we always had a daily, weekly and monthly checklist?
No.
I have always had a daily checklist and an ongoing to-do list that I add to daily but it wasn’t until recently I made a more thorough set of useful, printable checklists.

25 Simple Ways We Saved This Week
1.) We stayed home.
Yep, very simple. We did not participate in shopping online or in store the day after Christmas
2.) We created a paycheck by paycheck budget for 2016, beginning with the check we received on Christmas (we get paid bi-weekly). My wonderful hubby even created a spreadsheet to update as I change the numbers when bill amounts fluctuate. (Saving me a huge amount of time doing math each month.)
3.) We were blessed with perishable groceries from an unusual source.
We have a family friend leaving for a short family visit and they asked if we wanted to consume their perishables while they were gone. Of course! A gallon of milk, some fresh, crisp apples and other assorted items means we saved at least $10 we would otherwise have spent on perishables this week.
4.) We joined and uploaded receipts to Receipt Hog.
We earned 280 coins by uploading this week’s receipts (for any store), filling in our information, playing a free “pull” and confirming our email. If you would like to earn free money that can be cashed in for PayPal or Amazon Gift Cards, I suggest you sign up too. If you use this code SKAN9388 when you sign up, we will both receive a free “spin”. ( My first spin earned me 14 coins towards those gift cards). I figure I already spent the money at the store, a few extra minutes to upload the receipt is worth the gift cards at the end of the year.
