A Trip to the Carvnival

If you are stopping by from the Carnival of Money Stories hosted by living off dividends: Welcome! Thank you for visiting! I hope you enjoyed my Bill Me Later post.

There were many excellent posts at the Carnival this week. I totally relate to the piece submitted by Millionaire Mommy Next Door. My husband is unemployed right now. I often worry about what may happen if he isn't working soon. I sincerely wish the reader who wrote in all the best.

Becoming & Staying Debt Free's post How to be a debt free shopper reminded me of the time many years ago when I went to the grocery store with a $100 bill. I only needed eggs and I had no list. I spent the entire $100. I agree that we should make a list for Christmas shopping. I am proud to say that I have a list and a budget for Christmas gifts this year. It's a first for me. What about you? Do you have a list and a budget for Christmas?

Finally, there are the Simple Habits that Lead to Wealthbuilding posted at Wealthbuilding World. In my journey to free myself from the shackles of debt, I am working hard to develop these habits: save, invest, and delay gratification.

Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you enjoyed the Carninval of Money Stories.
