I just read that taking vitamin B6 supplements can help to cure depression. Apparently, B6 helps to create serotonin, something depressed people have a problem with. Anyone have experience with this?
What are your financial goals for 2010?
My goals are to start and maintain a short term and long term savings account. I also would like to pay off all my medical bills. Finally, I want to live as frugally as possibly so that DH and I can attend college full time.
Have a wonderful new year!
Today I took a friend up on on her offer to take me out to lunch so I didn't have a to pay anything for a lovely meal and I got to spend time with her, which is rare these days.
I also dug in couches, drawers, the sofa, and our truck to find my DH enough money to buy his smokes for the week...

I wish I would have seen this thread before yesterday! lol I made gift baskets for just about everyone. Got the baskets at the thrift store, put chocolate chip cookies in a jar (using mason jars I got for free), but that was the end of my thriftiness. I had to buy all the ingredients for the...
What do you make and sell to earn a little extra money?
I was thinking of sewing baby doll quilts with my leftover scrap fabric and selling them at our local crafters bazaar.
Any other ideas?
Just a quick question on the topic of water conservation....
If I were to use my leftover dishwater to flush the toilet, would that save more water than just flushing it the normal way? I've been pouring my leftover dishwater down the toilet and it flushes itself. Am I conserving water or...
In order to save money to buy our Suburban new tires, I did my second $30 grocery last week. We've spent $60 for two weeks of groceries and we haven't gone hungry once. We're eating a lot of beans, eggs, cheese, etc. I miss chicken, though. I'll admit forced vegetarianism isn't so bad but...
