OK...It's Tuesday - Let's all remember to start stashing our $1 bills.

It's a challenge Becky brought up that was done before. Here is a portion of Becky's post

"I know a long time ago we did this challenge and since I've actually forced myself to do it again, I thought it might be fun to do for April.

It's saving your $1 bills just like you would save change in a change jar but instead of change it's singles. You don't want to spend any of your singles, so when something is $2.00 - use a $5.00 and put the 3 singles away in an envelope. Then when we have saved it, use it as a snowflake or treat yourself (or do 1/2 & 1/2). I tend to be amazed how easily it is to just stash a few singles away. I know I did it one month just to see if I could and I ended up with about $20 or so."

Does that help? Sorry I haven't figured out how to insert the whole post! I'm still technically challenged. LOL

Looking forward to being Debt Free...$1 at a time.

Count me in! I just looked in my wallet and all I have is $10 and wouldn't you know it, it's all in singles! Ha! I guess I'm off to a great start! ;)
