I switched from a wireless phone to a prepaid cell phone service. I don't talk too much on my cell phone - mainly for emergencies. I got a Net10 cell phone from KMart and get minutes as I need them. It's an amazing deal and really saves money. There are no overage fees, no activation fees, no cancellation fees. I found all the information on their website...it was a major deciding factor. www.celldefense.com Here’s something that I’ve tried as of recently and it works when trying to save money!

I'd better work at getting over it pretty quickly because my severance is over. So sad. Distinguishing needs from wants has always been my downfall.

The thing that I've foundthat works best for me in saving money is that if I don't leave the house I don't spend, of course that only works if you do not buy online or over the phone.

I think those are a little over the top and that it could be really cute. I am seriously thinking about making one to show they can be cute. If you do then let me know.
