Helping You Save

July 18, 2009

Are you trying to save up for a car? College? Grad school? Or maybe a new washer and dryer (like me)? It can be overwhelming! There are a number of websites out there that can break it down for you. My favorite is smartypig.com. It is a growing website that helps you figure out how much money to put aside and for how long. The site is safe. And free. It’s similar to mint.com. Find out more by watching this week’s plugged in story.

Wedding Help

July 10, 2009

I’ve never planned a wedding myself, but if I did, I would definitely use theknot.com.  It’s a one, stop shop with everything you need to plan out your special day.  I love checking out the dress and hair ideas.  The site is especially helpful during these times when money is tight.  For example, check out the DIY (do it yourself) section.  It has a lot of cool, money-saving options.  For more about this site, check out my plugged in story.

Vacation Pictures

July 8, 2009

It’s sure been awhile since my last post! And this is one of the reasons why. I went on a vacation! Get this, my best friend’s boyfriend flew me down to Wilmington, N.C. to surprise her! My visit was part of their three year anniversary gift! It was a wonderful present for me as well! We had a ridiculously good time!
