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.

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.

Reduce, Reuse & Recycle, these are words every home should use whenever possible for a multitude of reasons, including helping the environment and saving money.
I come from a long line of frugal women.
Long before “Going Green” was “in”, my family was reducing, reusing and recycling.

Yep, folks we made it!
It is officially 2017, and I cannot wait to share the amazing things we have planned for 2017!!!
I have heard so many people say they couldn’t be happier that 2016 is over, and I can’t say I am not one of them. 2016 was full of ups and downs for those of us at Treasured Tidbits, not only financially but physically and emotionally as well. But… we persevered and we are ready to CRUSH 2017 in both our businesses and personal life.
I have been looking forward to today for months.
Today is the first day of a New Year, new chances and new business adventures. Business adventures we have been planning, cultivating and diligently building for months. I can’t wait to share them with you, but before we begin a 2017 overload, I want to share our main goals for 2017. Notice, I don’t call them resolutions because to me resolutions are easily broken, but goals are something to be attained, something to aim for and can be put aside in a time of trouble to be restarted when that trial passes. Our top five goals for 2017 are:
