The Moolah $avings Game

We are an one income family.  I will admit, sometimes it is not fun watching how the money is spent or saying, "no" to something the kids want. But I am so thankful for the opportunity to stay home with my children, that is priceless to me.  One way you can "have fun" watching our spending, is by making a game out of it.

How LOW can you get your weekly grocery budget?

Can you SAVE more than you spend?  (as shown on the bottom of many receipts)

Are there creative ways to cloth the kids?  Swap with friends?

How cheap can the whole family eat out?

Where are some areas we can cut costs?

 Before buying something, wait a week....do you still REALLY want it?

Try only buying items that are on sale or if you have a coupon.

Only eat out if you have a coupon to use at the restaurant.

Play the Moolah $AVINGS GAME.  Set a budget and see if you can spend LESS.  Whether you are playing to get yourself out of debt, save money for a family vacation or to just challenge yourself, get the whole family involved.

How does YOUR family save money when working with a budget?
