Get That Piggy Bank Mentality

Hey you out there.  Yes you.  Got money problems - too many bills - not enough income.  Well, you have to get that piggy bank mentality - back!  You know when you were a kid and all your money went into your precious piggy bank.  Well, bring it on - the piggy bank is back - and - here to stay.

Mentally - you must say to yourself - what can I do today to save money? Just one thing - even if it's only pennies.  Because you can try and go cold turkey for not spending - but - your setting yourself up to fail -  baby steps - that is what will be more effective.  A little here - a little there.

Frugality is a mentality.  You don't have to be super cheap to be frugal.  Just try and be careful on what your spending your money on.  At Shopper's Drugmart stock up on 20 X the points day.  And, only redeem on redemption days when your at your highest points level.

Nobody said it would be easy.  Today - I am reading the free newspaper - hey I just saved .50 cents. Wow!

And remember - always - pay yourself first.
