Clever Posts Of the Week – August 30th
Warning, Warning – long weekend ahead! It’s going to be a nice, long, relaxing holiday weekend, but since it’s a day longer there exists opportunity to spend more. Maybe even overspend. We’ve got to watch our budget closely and keep that in mind when we’re making plans. How do you keep yourself on budget on long weekends?
- How Much Would You Spend on a Once In A Lifetime Experience? from Young Adult Money

- Save Money on Back To School Shopping from One Smart Dollar
