Allowance for Chores?
How the 5/50/500 rule applies to your family
Should you give your kids an allowance for doing chores?
NOOOOO! – that was our first response.
But years later we reconsidered this decision because we discovered the 5 / 50 / 500 money rule.
There are rules that govern our lives, our world, and the universe. There are also rules that govern the earning, saving and spending of money.
Knowing how to operate within the rules usually means success and a more peaceful existence. Violating the rules has the opposite effect.
Preparing your child to live a financially independent life may not be on the top of your to-do list. But if you knew the impact of the 5/50/500 money rule, you’d want to get started today.

Buying Meat in Bulk to Save Money
We have always thought about buying meat in bulk online, but have never jumped in until now. We were recently introduced to The Savory Butcher and their local fresh meat deliveries.
You know that we are bargain shoppers. However, the quality and the pricing that The Savory Butcher offers really piqued our interest. This is a really great way to lock in a good price on a large quantity of quality meat. If you don't have time to hunt for meat bargains in the traditional way, this could save you a lot of time and money.

How to Cure a Cold Faster
Cold & Flu season is horrible and tricky. Catching a cold or the flu is almost inevitable. How to cure a cold and beat sickness is a game everyone wants to win. It takes the right tools and know-how to beat a cold in one or two days, but it can be done.
If you leave your house at all or have a large family, you’ll be surrounded by people. And those people will be breathing out things you’ll be breathing in. They’ll be sneezing, wheezing and coughing too. Then they’ll be touching things that you’ll be touching. Even the most stalwart "Germophobe" is likely to pick up some type of bug.
Yes, catching a cold or the flu almost inevitable, but having it linger for weeks is not necessary.

Why You Should Adopt a Pet Rather Than Buy One
We think you should adopt a pet rather than buy one for several reasons. Learn how to find the best pet and get the best deal when you adopt.
Are your kids asking you to adopt a pet for your family? Or are your kids grown and you want a furry friend as a companion?
Many people think pet adoption is an expensive luxury. But don’t panic! Actually, getting and keeping a pet doesn’t have to cost as much as you think!
You could go to Craigslist or OfferUp. But whatever you do, stay as far away from breeding mills as possible! But your best option is to adopt your next pet from an animal shelter or rescue group. (see Shelter & Rescue list at the end of this article)
Because of the care that pets receive there, you save money both in short term and long term.
And you will get your money’s worth and more!
