Family Balance Sheet

APRIL 30, 2015

In 2015 I’m challenging myself to rethink purchases by taking advantage of more cost effective solutions like borrowing, buying second hand, or just making do with what we already have. I need spring clothes and I always find the cutest name brand tops at BJ’s at decent low prices.

However, there are simple things we can do every day that help Mother Earth by using less energy, sending less trash to the land fills, and conserving our natural resources.
