After very little sleep last night I've spent the day on the computer working on my new Quicken software (the reason I pulled out my paperwork in the first place), and looking up money saving stuff on the internet. I also called our bank to see what we can do and it looks like we'll be able to refinance both loans into one loan at a way better rate and even maybe save a couple hundred dollars each month! That makes me happy. So, now that I've turned my anger into action, I thought I'd share some of what I found with you.
I don't normally watch the Duggers on TLC but happened to catch the episode where they made their own laundry soap. So, I looked it up and found the recipe. Plus a ton of other recipes! I'm planning on making the powdered laundry detergent as it sounds like the liquid version is a little time consuming and doesn't turn out too well. I still have some store bought stuff so when I run low on that I'll give it a try and let you know how it goes.
This next website was introduced to me at my Luna Mom's club meetup. It's all about getting the toxic chemicals out of your house but as an added bonus you can save tons of money by making your own cleaners. Check out Healthy Child Healthy World. You won't be sorry you did!
These next websites were suggested at my MOM's club meeting last month. The theme was money saving ideas. That is where I heard about the Fix, Freeze, Feast book I've been using and love. I haven't had much time to check out Hillbilly Housewife or The Family Homestead but looked them over a little today and will definitely take some things from them to use in my house. Like the canning! Anyway, hope you can find some money saving tips to use in your house too!
