My plan is to use this cash first as it will come to term around the same time we will need to make the first college payment. Both our CD and high-interest savings account are FDIC-insured and are at banks that we trust. Airlines Refund of $400 + $200 credit We flew to Florida in March to visit family.

March was pretty good to me…I was able to add $307.55 Having the ”vacation savings account” is like a back-up plan so we don’t feel strapped while we’re there. 25 doesn’t sound like much, but that adds up to $1300 a year my friends – Tip: If you bank online, do NOT add this account.

March was very good to me…I added $557.10 I buy the gift card I want through QuickRewards , get paid for doing that, use that same gift card to shop online through QR, and get paid for that too. I collect the gift cards and use them to order essentials for our trips. Sorry this is a bit late this month! LOVE this app!!

I did something different this month and used cash instead of my debit card. I found it easier to keep a tab on my grocery spending and I’m going to continue to use cash. Thankfully, nothing happened to my account, but my bank issued us new cards anyway. March’s Assignments. March’s Assignments.

Aside from a health concern with one of my daughters , 2017 was a great year, however, I was distracted by non-necessities, so my overall theme for 2018 is to use my time more wisely on the people and things that are important to me. I’ll give myself the extra half hour of sleep until March. Update financials. Check email.

Ever since we stumbled past the Fiscal Cliff and the budget crisis, the stock market has been rising like a hot air balloon in an updraft (at least as of the time this post was written at the end of March 2013). In 2010 and 2011 I did get a lot of it re-invested, even though it was rising the whole time. What strategy are you using?
