Changing directions....

I have been so busy lately I have all but abandoned this blog. I think I am going to shift a little to more inspiration, less couponing. I love coupons and the frugal lifestyle and if I find a really awesome deal I'll post it but for the most part I think I want to stick to inspiration and commentary. There are so many great couponing blogs out there I can't possibly keep up with them. I would encourage all the coupon lovers to follow one of my favorites, www.hip2save.com. This is a great blog for finding deals! There are several others as well but for now, I'll stick to mentioning that one and mention others at a later date.

Todays inspirational quote comes from a great book I just bought, The Celebrate-Your-Life Quote Book by Allen Klein

"Try to make at least one person happy every day, and then in ten years you may have made 3,650 persons happy, or brightened a small town by your contribution to the fund of general enjoyment." ~Sydney Smith

Making someone else smile is a wonderful way to brighten your own day and the day of someone else, you never know what they are going through that day and the benefits you get from it make it one of the best investments you can make in your own happiness.

Make money on those old books

So I visited www.cash4books.net, they buy old books. Might as well make some money on them. All you need is the book's ISBN. I tried several books but out of about 5, they were only buying one. They offered me $2.49 for it (I think it was Dog Training for Dummies). I decided to keep the book but I know where to go if I need some cash for my books. As for the books they are not buying right now, I recommend either holding onto them and trying again at another time or donating them to your local library.
