Creative and Fun Way to Save $$ by your Posts

[shel90]

Since Jillo made over 20K in post, I have been thinking about how easy it is to accumulate so many posts, I came up with an idea that could help all of us if you are up to it.

I wonder if u would like to put a certain about of money, like a dime or whatever for each post we make in a piggy bank or an empty juice bottle. If I had to put $1 for every post I made each day since I joined, I would have had over $15,000 saved. Instead of a dollar, what about a quarter or a dime? Just thought to come up with a creative way to get us to save money?

What do you think? I think I am gonna start tmw with a quarter for each post. If I dont have them with me, I can jot down the number of posts I make each day and collect the same number of quarters to put in my bottle. If it works, in a few years, I could save thousands of dollars. What do you think? Stupid idea or not?

Good idea! I may need to either slow down posting or earn more!:P

If everyone did this, there would be more thought provoking posts!

Some posts aren't worth a quarter..

Cuz if Jillo donated $1 for each post, she would have had over $20K saved...same with Liebling, Cheri, Vampy and others...Dang!!! If only saving money was that easy which was why I came up with this idea. It may be hard but not impossible.

Sounds good idea so I can use that for my daughter's college

I no longer remember how many messages I posted today (actually yesterday), but I'm going to start counting later today. Great idea, Shel!

Jillio's posts would be worth, at least, $1. Lieblings' would be troublemakers' so it mean -$1. Want to save money? Then don't listen to the person who claims to be someone who she is not.

That sounds like a good idea. It would be a good way to pay off my debt.

Both Jillio's and Liebling's posts have always been very informative. If you disagree, then don't read them. :roll:

Shel - what I do is set up the automatic withdrawal for my saving account (different bank) to withdraw $20 from my checking account every Friday. Been doing it for a few months. It is nice.

as for post - i guess why not? a $1 per post is quite expensive... how about a nickel?

I am going with 25 cents. 15,000 times .25 is 3,750. Wish I can do a dollar!!!

Shel90,

I think your idea is wonderful!!! I just told my hubby about your post... He laughed and said it´s good suggestion then it would make us richer...

I just got my old piggy bank... I am going to add €1 per post from today.

I guess I should be a banker? One time I told my friend, who had complained to me about having a hard time saving money, instead of buying pop from the vending machines with her change, put her change in an empty bottle so she started. It was 5 years ago and she told me last year that she saved over $1,000 in change. She was pleased. Hehehehe!

You're quite welcome, Liebling.

Don't you dare slow down! Just put in two cents for each post.

Shel,

My mother always encouraged me to save all of my change in a container. Last year I saved $100. It's amazing how quickly change can add up!

WOW. over $1,000 change??? I hardly buy anything from vending machines. IT'S A RIP OFF!!! I just buy a bulk and bring some to work.

Are you willing to put aside $5 a day?

If you want to figure out how much you will likely be putting aside a day, look at your profile. Under statistics, you'll see your average posts per day. Divide that number by 4 and you've got your dollar value.

If you make an average of 20 posts per day, that's $5 per day put aside.
