I have quite a few links from this week. I'm going to start with the carnivals I participated in; there were two. The first was the Carnival of Personal Finance over at Paid Twice. I was included with my post "My New Grocery Budget" under the running backs section. (It was superbowl week of course!) Second was the Festival of Frugality at Being Frugal. I was included with my post "I Only Buy Clothes with Gift Cards." It's funny, because I was a running back on that "team" too!
As for the other posts from the carinval and the festival that I liked (in no particular order):
20 Ways to Save on Your Utility Bills at Destroy Debt. A lot of those things don't apply to me right now living in an apartment, but my room mate and I try to use as little electric and water as possible. Those are our only two utility bills. (Well, plus the evil cable guy).
The next post that I liked also had lots of attention already. It's Mrs. Micah's Bridesmaid Dresses--we need a solution! I've only ever had to buy one so far, and I was 17 (it was my cousin's wedding) so my mom bought it for me. I proceeded to use it for homecoming and prom my senior year. (I'm not a fan of dresses, so I wasn't buying more!)
The Beauty of Silver or 25 Things I Used to Take for Granted was a nice post. What really caught my eye was the name of the blog, Oh my Aching Debts. Clever; I like it.
Then there was Cheap Healthy Party Food at Cheap Healthy Good. That's mostly for all of you readers' benefit. I'm not a fan of healthy, but maybe some of you are!
Are you still with me? I've got two more...
How to Quit Your Job Gracefully at Get Rich Slowly was an interesting read. But I've never had to do any of that yet. My first job they knew when I was leaving because I just told them. And then I would come back, and leave again, and come back, etc (because of school). The next two jobs were at school, and simply ended when I graduated.
Finally there is a post about Subaru's Clean Car Plant at The Good Human. I've seen the commercial for it, and we even talked about it in my anthropology class last semester. I really like what I learned about them in this post.
That's it. Happy reading!
