I have been using Downy Unstopables since I first tried them a few years ago at a blogging conference. It isn’t too floral but gives just the right scent that is very reminiscent of spring! I love the great scents that they add to my laundry and love how easy it is to just sprinkle some of them into the wash!

Is it really worth it to give up whole foods (not the store, the actual foods) to save money? I think about FinCon for example, the conference for personal finance bloggers I attended last weekend in New Orleans. Sometimes the things we have to give up to put an extra few bucks in the bank account aren’t really worth it.
