We’ve only bought 4 pieces of real estate in our lives, including two homes. We were required to hook up to the sewer if the property came within 100 feet of it (by the way, you pay for the line from your house to the sewer line as well). We lived in the first home 10 years and are going on 23 years in our current home.

According to the July 15, 2010 Back to School Survey from the National Retail Federation, the average family spent around $600 per child for back to school needs, split between clothing (37%); electronics (30%); shoes (17%) and school supplies (16%). I love to shop garage sales. Involve Your Child in Planning and Budgeting.
