Day 7- Monday

TOTAL OOP for week #1...$21.47


Well today is the 7th day of the challenge and I've thought of a couple of ways to be more frugal.

1. Put my Healthmiles pedometer back on and rack up points for a gift card- they give out Target GCs!

2. Use Swagbucks.com to look up everything. Earn points and get GCs!


3. Check YouData EVERYDAY....and make some pocket change.

4. Darlin Dan and I have started saving our soda cans---we'll see how much we earn!

5. Darlin Dan replaced rear signal light bulbs! No charges there!

6. Respond to all surveys on the receipts from WAGs and CVS. Maybe one of these days I'll get lucky.

7. Get my lunch from my freezer/stockpile....I've been doing this pretty consistently, but want it to be automatic.

8. Cancel some things I pay for that are not necessary....Gevalia Coffee, FRS energy drinks, Golds gym.

Todays OOP $0

Sounds like you are doing great on your challenge. What is the healthmiles thing? I'd love to get giftcards for walking, it might get me to exercise more.

The school district I work for changed health insurance to Humana and they have a program called Healthmiles. I received a free pedometer that you can interface with the computer and it counts and stores how many steps you take. Right now I'm participating in the "marathon" to earn extra healthmiles-points towards prizes...Gift Cards!
