Viewing the '$20 Challenge' CategoryNervous :/March 27th, 2009 at 12:40 amI borrowed $171.90 from my Disney money and paid back $200. I am afraid I am not going to have enough money this week to make my car payment though. Racing PoolMarch 25th, 2009 at 11:44 pmMy husband won a racing pool at work. Some people didn't pay and I think he spent some of it, but he did give me $35. I also found a dollar in the dryer. LOL ChangeMarch 3rd, 2009 at 12:05 amI am having a hard time finding things to sell and coming up with money for this. :/ StartMarch 1st, 2009 at 09:54 pmOK I am starting this blog off with what I have saved up so far. Not much. I consigned a bunch of my daughter's clothes at Once Upon a Child and they gave me a check for $129.53. Today my husband sold some speakers for $40 too. AddingMay 27th, 2007 at 03:22 amI rolled up all the change that I have been collecting while I wasn't doing much else to save. I had some dollars in my change jar and my pocketbook too. I have 15 dollar bills and $38.50 in change. Starting OverMay 27th, 2007 at 03:18 amWe had to use some of our savings money for some bills that came up. I just kind of gave up after that. I am starting over and my restart total that is in my ING account is $1244.21. My next goal is to get it back up to that $1500 mark. *** $1500.00!! ***April 11th, 2007 at 03:04 amOne more add here before bed. I forgot about the $20 DH's uncle gave him for gas. He spent it but I transferred it our of our bank account. LOL On top of that I rolled $10.50 in quarters and pennies. That brings my total to over $1500.00. I am so happy with that Day TipperApril 11th, 2007 at 01:06 amI have another 11.35 to add to the challenge. I got paid for two tips I submitted at daytipper.com. $6.00 per tip (minus paypal's fees bla) Adding to the ChallengeApril 10th, 2007 at 05:01 pmDon't give up on me yet DollarsApril 2nd, 2007 at 10:15 pmI had some dollars I have been saving in my pocketbook. I did have more but like I said I have been slack on my savings. SlackApril 2nd, 2007 at 09:41 pmI have been really slack lately about trying to add money to the challenge. I am going to try to get better about it. I did roll some wuarters and pennies today. I have 10.50 to add from that. I am also adding the 3.62 for March's interest paid in my ING account. ChangeMarch 18th, 2007 at 04:15 amI forgot to add 0.50 for pennies I rolled today Challenge MoneyMarch 18th, 2007 at 04:10 amI have $20 to add to the challenge from DH's uncle from gas. Challenge MoneyMarch 16th, 2007 at 10:37 pmWe sold DS's Gameboy Advance on Amazon. Our total profit was 46.35. I transferred that to my ING today More Money and Cha ChaMarch 13th, 2007 at 03:48 amI have become a cha cha guide to make some extra money for savings. Lots of pranking. Keeps me entertained. Messed UpMarch 13th, 2007 at 12:11 amI messed up transferring money into my ING. I knew it would happen eventually. I put a deposit in the bank and accidentally transferred all of it to my ING which was not my intention. I am just going to leave it that way and be more careful that time. The difference is $51. One More DollarMarch 8th, 2007 at 04:00 amI found a dollar in a bank envelope in my pocketbook. I am putting it into my challenge money. I will deposit this tomorrow so I can start earning interest on all the money instead of having a bunch of it in an envelope at home. EbayMarch 8th, 2007 at 03:55 amI finally have got my ebay stuff straight. Everything I sold was actually paid for pretty quickly except for one. Still no payment so I reported them to ebay. After shipping fees, paypal fees, and ebay fees I made $38.48. Not too bad considering most of it was stuff I had just lying around. I can't wait until it gets warmer and I can have a yard sale. ING InterestMarch 8th, 2007 at 02:38 amI am adding my interest paid from my ING account for February. A whole $1.14. LOL More ChangeMarch 6th, 2007 at 08:37 pmI have a roll of nickels, a roll of dimes, and three dollar bills to add to the challenge money. I wish I knew hoe much changed I had saved up. I can't tell since a lot of it has gone into the bank and been transferred to my ING. I am going to go back though my journal and see if I can figure it out. We Love Bellsouth!March 4th, 2007 at 06:10 amMore money in the mail today from Bellsouth Check From BellsouthMarch 2nd, 2007 at 11:59 pmBellsouth sent us a check for $125 for switching our phone service to them. We were paying $130 a month for our cable and internet, and then another $30 a month for our phone service through Vonage. We switched to a package from Bellsouth and DirecTV that will only cost us $100 a month for the three. Not only are we saving $60 a month, but we will be getting close to $500 in rewards from them for switching. I also have $10 to add from the gas money Dh gets weekly. Still hereMarch 2nd, 2007 at 02:11 amI am still around. I have been off work on vacation all week. I have been making tons of new things and learning how to cook from scratch. I have been getting tons of advice at frugalvillage.com. I haven't had much to add to my savings lately. I sold some stuff on ebay and am just waiting for some payments to come in before I transfer that. For today I do have a roll of quarters, two rolls of pennies, and 7 dollar bills. YAY! More money!February 24th, 2007 at 03:06 amLong story short - my DH ordered me flowers for V-Day and I didn't get them. They tried to send them a day late and I refused them. I fought with the floral company for hours until I finally ended up with a free bouquet, and a full refund for what he spent. This was credited to my account today so I am going to send it to savings. The total for that is $74.98. Good Mail Day, More MoneyFebruary 24th, 2007 at 02:45 amI had a great mail day today. I got a check for $10 from a research company for sending them a copy of my ID to prove I am 21 and can do cigarette surveys; a $7.15 check from Cash Crate for completing offers; and The Tightwad Gazette III. I orderd I, II, and III on half.com for $4.00 each. And that is with shipping. Adding Dollars and CoinsFebruary 21st, 2007 at 04:35 amI went through my pocketbook and I had 10 dollar bills and enough change to make another roll of quarters and another roll of pennies. Amazon PaymentFebruary 21st, 2007 at 04:12 amWhen I checked my bank account just now there was money transferred into it for a textbook I sold on Amazon. I transferred it into my ING account. Adding MoneyFebruary 17th, 2007 at 12:50 amI have $20 to add for DH's gas money from his uncle for this week and last week. (He owes us 6 more.) Then I added up the ones I have saved. More moneyFebruary 13th, 2007 at 08:46 pmThis past weekend we spent in the mountains with some of our friend's who just had a baby on Friday. The trip was unplanned b/c we didn't know the baby was coming. We kind of spent a lot of money but I had got a check for going to school and working in daycare. They give you so much money for every class you take. My check was for 360. I loaned my sister 60 and I guess we spent the rest in the mountains. I have some ones left but not much else to show for it. Quick UpdateFebruary 13th, 2007 at 05:47 pmI have been without internet for a week while we switched over to a cheaper company. I am back now and have more to add to my savings. I sold some books on Amazon and just transferred the money over to my ING account. I am thinking once I go through some stuff here I will have a little more to add so hopefully I will be back later.
