Hey I just wanted to give you all a few tips I use to save money since we are all trying to find the money for Christmas gifts. 1.Keep the change, when you buy something for $1.25 and get .75 back put it in a jar and don't spend it 2. Outta site outta mind, hide money in a special place that you will ocasionally see it, so that you aren't tempted to grab it and spend it 3.Don't bring it all, keep only $20-$40 in your purse at a time, if you don't have it you can't spend it. I hope these helped!

This is a very smart way to save change that would eventually turn into bills. Thank you for sharing this. I also have a boss who keep his loose change in one area of his house and come Christmas, he will use it to buy himself a gift. I should try practicing it as well. Thanks

your ideas are great! i have another one for you. never shop with a credit card! you are just asking for trouble. keep it at home and only use it for emergencies or better still, never use one!
