Parents already know that back to school time is the second most expensive time of the year (right after the holidays). Let your pre-teen and/or teen spend their own allowance on clothing for back to school and don’t jump in to bail them out if they make choices they regret! I love to shop garage sales. Get Social.

How this holiday has changed since I was a child in the 1950’s, and even since I raised my own sons in the 1970’s/80’s! Louis suburbs but had similar experiences with Halloween.

If you’d like to make the switch from paper napkins, consider going to cloth napkins. You can often by these cheap at garage sales. You may find seasonal cloth napkins at a discounted price after the holiday. There is a growing trend for “ family cloth ” which is reusable cloth to replace toilet paper.
