[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let's find out the embarrassing things you do to save money:
1. State your HHI.
2. List some things you do to save money.
3. List some ways how you waste money (not a waste to you, but to most people)
Then we can make fun of each other. Or maybe we can learn new ways to save money.

1.  Just under 1,000,000

2.  Shop at thrift stores, including for complete games, puzzles, clothes, etc., many of which become our kids Xmas presents.  (For example, my kids love games, so I'll quickly check that a thrift store find has a complete Battleship game, buy it, wrap it, and give as a gift).  Will often even go on Amazon at the thrift store to make sure whether it is a well liked item.  Buy meat at grocery store a day or two before it expires when it is 30-50% off, make immediately or freeze, use coupons (maybe 2 per shopping trip), buy and sell on Ebay about 10x a year (meaning, purposefully buying something just to resell it).  Reuse uncancelled stamps.  Like those shampoo bottles too (we use them all...kids take showers daily all summer long after swim team).

3.  Travel costs are higher than you can fathom.,  :cry:   Have many (moderately priced) cars...used for different reasons.  Belong to a country club and separately a pool[/quote]
