After a lot of neglect, learning how to organize finances seems intimidating. But these 3 simple steps make it easy!
It started innocently.
First there was the stack of mail you forgot about.
So you missed a bill or two.
Then the late fees began to pile up.
Suddenly, everything seemed to snowball.
How did a few mess ups lead to this feeling of drowning?
It’s enough to make you want to quit the whole thing. There are people out there that just ignore their money, right? Nothing all that bad seems to happen to them.
Except that you do worry. Your money nightmare keeps you tossing and turning on your pillow.
And the not knowing what’s going to happen next is the worst.
Ready to buy? Before you shop new, you should always check into used stuff for sale. Here you’ll find tips to help you get the best deal and save more cash.
Gal 1, we’ll call her Sally, set a New Year’s Resolution. She’s going to get in shape this year.
So Sally looks through the ads, does some research, and picks out a couple of pieces of exercise equipment.
She’s got some money saved up, but she wants to get a deal. So, she heads for the store with the best price.
While she’s there, she picks up a couple other things and signs up for the warranty.
And sure, she had to put some of the cost on a credit card… but she should be able to pay that off soon-ish.
Gal 2, we’ll call her Lisa, also has a New Year’s Resolution. She’s going to declutter the house.
Ugh. There’s that exercise equipment she bought two years ago. It’s been nothing but a clothes rack ever since.
It still works just fine…but it’s pretty obvious she isn’t going to use it at this point.

Have you overlooked this simple way to save money on groceries?
I scraped the remains of yet another failed recipe into the trash. I’d been pretty excited about trying the new dish I’d found on Pinterest. It looked delicious!
Although it did have a few odd ingredients.
And the recipe didn’t end up being quite as simple as I’d expected.
Turns out the family wasn’t into it. My experiment meant more time and money down the drain.
I knew there had to be a better way to put together a meal plan. I was tired of planning elaborate meals to keep things interesting. I was even more tired of wasting money every week.
Something had to change. Luckily, that “something” turned out to be a rather simple solution.
This year, why not host a cookie exchange? It’s such a fun way to spread Christmas cheer without the cost and hassle of a traditional Christmas party!
