It DOES add up. I was reminded of that yesterday when the “Fishy” banks came home from Church to raise money for our Church camp. The kids quickly discovered several dollars worth of change hiding around the house. A great illustration of this “found money” strategy are these two blogs–which just profile the money their authors find on the street…

RME and Obopay are big snowflakes for me right now.
You and your husband can get $60 ( $25 sign on bonus, $10 for referring spouse, $25 sign on for spouse ) free in about 3 days from RME and $25 free from Obopay ( $10 sign on & transfer $1 bonus…refer spouse…transfer $ to him, $5 referral then, have him sign up & transfer $1 to someone..anyone…gets another $10 ) in about a week.
Plus, refer it to others and you get $10 per referral for RME and $5 for Obopay. I have made almost $400 in about 1 1/2 months on these 2 programs.
Plus, I try to encourage all my eBay buyers to pay me through one of these 2 methods ( since I don’t get charged fees ).
Both of these programs are paypal competitors. They are trying to break into the market. You can read reviews from USA Today, etc that I have linked on my site as they are legitimate sites.

Just remember to thank the Lord for your snowflakes!! All provision comes from Him.

That’s awesome!!! I’m getting serious about snowflaking. I’ve been putting all my extras ($$ from surveys, etc) straight into our regular account but no longer. I’ll be putting it straight into our emergency fund from now on. =)

Hi Kacie!

I’m posting here since it’s the most recent post (this question is totally unrelated, sorry). I have 2 wedding-related questions:
– Do any of you budget for future weddings (friends’ weddings, not your own)? I’m specifically thinking about ones that will require air travel, hotel, etc. Any tips are appreciated.
– Any gift-giving tips? My fiancé and I usually try to stick to the couple’s registry (neither of us is particularly crafty) and have set a budget/gift. However, I try to use store credit if I have any, 20% or competitor’s coupons, or other good deals (I saw a promotion for Amazon for 1000 AMEX points for $50+ instead of the usual $1/point so we did that since we plan to cash in those points towards our future honeymoon).

Thanks!

I might be interested in buying some graphing calculators for my future classroom. Drop me an email if you are interested in selling directly rather than through ebay.

I absolutely love ING and MyPoints. They are fabulous.

I nearly jawdropped at your snowflaking and did an outloud wondering of how much I had in potential snowflakes.

Going backwards, I took my net income, subtracted out my bills, and…came up with nearly $1000 a month that I am somehow frittering away.

It’s true, we really don’t count these small sources of money coming in like we should. Way to have a post celebrating them!

Associated content is a great idea. I’ve had my blog since Jan. 1st and I’ve made 79 dollars from AC. I don’t bother selling a lot of posts – because they don’t like lists and certain topics are too broad for them. Once you start doing it, you’ll figure out which ones are easy to sell and which ones are not.
