Who New? it was so easy to get organized!

More Storage for a Three-Ring Binder
If your children are having trouble losing erasers and pencils at school consider this little hack. Take a hefty plastic Ziploc bag, punch 3 holes in it and then slide it into their 3-ring binder. After that, fill it with pencils and erasers. It’s an easy way to help them stay more organized at school.

Yet Another use for Shoe Boxes
If you’re like me then you store your underwear, socks and pajamas all in the same clothes drawer. If that’s the case it might be wise to use shoe boxes to divide up the categories. This way it’s easier to find what you need, keep dirty and clearn laundry seperate and it makes cleaning up much quicker if you have company coming over.

Getting rid of clothing clutter
If you’re worried that you’re going to get buried every time you open up your closet, it might be time to downsize. Sort through the clothes that you don’t want anymore, pack them up and take them to the nearest re-sale store or charity. This clears up space for you AND is good for the environment!

Who Knew Wednesday? Saving Money Part II

Here are our Who Knew Wednesday life hacks for saving money

Switch banks?
This one might be a little tedious but it can also save you a lot of money in the long run. Time to look over bank statements and see if you are being charged monthly service fees. It might be time to consider switching over to a new bank with little or no fees. Sometimes cash rewards are offered for opening up a new account this could be one of those things that saves you hundreds of dollars overtime.

Double pay
Credit card debt in some form or manner. Ways to lower your credit card bill every month is by making sure you your daily average is kept low. Your interest rates depen on how high or low your daily average is. So if you say make to $150 throughout the month instead of one big $300, you’ll money.

Take the Initiative With Friends
We’ve all been there before…you work hard to cut down all spending and then your friends decide to go out to the priciest place in town. What should you do? You don’t want to kill the mood, but you also don’t want to spend all that hard-earned saved money.

To avoid this situation, get into the habit of inviting everyone else out first! You choose where you want go and you still get to spend time with your friends. This is not a surefire method, but it will definitely help keep you out of some sticky situations!
