Default 2008 Debt Diet
HEAR YE!! HEAR YE!!


The 2008 Debt Diet is back in force!

All this thread is about - is to share $$ saving ideas ... how to look for bargains and enjoy life!

my debt has been mounting due to the denials from long-term disability .. so I have to appeal ... and survive on nothing from some sort of income! but, I'm doing good - I found $1 on the ground today .. a little wet and icy .. but COLD CASH!!

we need to encourage others that we, too, can become debt free ... we CAN DO IT!!

EVERYONE'S A WINNER!!!

Now this is a diet that I so desperately need. I am a bit OOC in teh cash dept.

Ok Ok I am ready to learn...

By the way did anyone find a dollar? I seemed to drop one?

Seriously though I need to get debt free. Just the other week I bought a book on how to cut credit card debt. I have not started it though.

Default Thank You!!!
Thank you, Vonn, for bringing this thread back to life!! I need it so badly and got SO many good ideas from the first one.

I've done pretty good this month. Have spent nothing except the essentials and even cut down on those!! I'm so proud of myself!

Vonn, thank you so much for putting this thread here! Because of all the wonderful ideas and support from others I received these past few weeks, my DH and I have found that by sticking to our budget we can manage to do a few much needed house repairs without going into any further debt!!

hmmm, Shelley .. that's a tough one .. because ... if you are 'on the diet' you don't really need the book .. HEY - how about seeing if you can check it out from your library first???

Do you need a new book to read? Or are you just wanted to buy? If you need a book, do they have used books? If you just want to buy, STOP! Ask yourself - do I really need it????
