I went to McDonald's and didn't have a coupon. What's a girl to do?
That's right, I pulled out my phone and used the McD app that I told you about. My bill went from $10 to $6 with a simple scan at the drive-thru to save $3.99 instantly :)
Now, what are the chances that I will put that $4.00 savings into a bank account to accrue interest and give me a million dollar retirement account in 20 years? Probably not so good! But I am still following the tips I learned in Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University class and I have high hopes that I will get and keep my finances in order. For some reason though, a new bill pops up right after I finish paying one off!
It's a New Year: Welcome 2016. I already know it's going to be a great one. Many people make resolutions and keep them for about 2 weeks. Well, my resolution is to make the resolution every week. I will then have 52 chances to make it work. Feel free to steal the idea - we don't have to reinvent EVERY wheel. If it worked for someone else, it may work for us too. I resolve to drink more water, get to 10,000 steps on my Fitbit EVERY day, and keep a sunny, positive attitude. I am positive I will be healthier this time next month. If not, I will make a new resolution to do it :)
Keep your feet on the ground, and keep reaching for the stars: missed you Dick -New Year's Eve just wasn't the same!
Have an awesome evening, and always look on the bright side! Michelle :)
