Thanks for mentioning the Carnival of Retirement I hosted this past Monday!
No problem, Jacob. I always do my best to link back to any carnivals I’ve been included in.
Thanks a lot for the mention, Jen! I appreciate it.
You are very welcome, Suba.
Thanks for the shoutout!
Welcome.
I’m a sucker for home improvement/beautification.
Saving must be a way of life. I’ve learned to resist the impulse purchase and stop and think before I purchase. I ask myself if I really need this thing, and also, if I do need it, let’s look for a way to find a discount on it.
That’s a great way to think, Lorne.
I still struggle sometimes with purchasing things we don’t need, but I’ve improved dramatically from a few years ago. Keep up the smart spending.
