August 12, 2013 by Mr. 1500 Days 32 Comments

Hi there, Mrs. 1500 again.Last week, I asked you if you ever loaned money to friends or family. (Mr. 1500 recently received a request via Facebook for money from the wife of an old friend, who really isn't a friend any longer due to extremely poor decisions and no desire to change his ways.

I had done it a few years ago, and was surprised at the paltry return. $32 for 4 very large bags of squashed cans.It seems that many of you have done it in the past, and realized the same thing, the effort is not really worth the reward. Grayson @ Debt Roundup also collected and … [Read more...] about Ask the Readers: What is your Side Hustle?

Do you keep turkey pans or buy disposable every year because you only use them once a year?Done by Forty wrote that they, too are purging and are getting rid of a set number of … [Read more...] about Ask the Readers: Do you collect aluminum cans?
