This Giveaway has Ended--Get Organized With the Savvycents Wallet – Check it Out & Enter to Win!
Today I’m excited to tell you about a product I’ve been using every day since I got it!
Back at the end of June, I was contacted by Savvycents regarding their organizing wallet. It was originally created for women who follow the envelope budgeting system you might be familiar with. It also works for anyone (like me) who has a wallet or purse full of receipts, coupons, credit cards, cash, and who knows what else!
Melinda at Savvycents sent me a wallet so I could give it a try. At the time, I honestly had no idea how much space it would save in my purse, or how much better organized it would keep me. Before this wallet, I had a checkbook holder that also held my cash and receipts plus a credit card holder where I wound up putting more receipts. I had an envelope (or two) full of coupons floating around in my purse at all times too. Oops, I almost forgot to mention the loose change. It was really a mess, and it was hard to find what I needed.
With the organization in the Savvycents wallet, I consolidated everything. It’s like I have a little filing system in my wallet with a place for cash, ID, credit cards, receipts, coupons, and more. It even comes with labels in case you need to remind yourself where everything goes. And it has a zippered compartment for change on the outside.
These wallets are also stylish enough to carry on their own, and you can do that, since everything you need is in one place. I’m not kidding when I tell you how much easier it is not to have to dig and dig (and dig) through my purse at a checkout trying to find my debit card or cash. Everything’s in this wallet.
To get your own, visit Savvycents’ website.
You can also win your own wallet (in your choice of pink or black)!

Save Money on Movie Tickets with MomsWhoSave and Rene Syler
You might remember a frugal DIY project I posted not too long ago. It was a great photo frame idea my Facebook friend Rene Syler came up with.
Well, she recently gave me a heads up about a website that saves you money on movie tickets. That got me thinking about how my family saves money going to the movies too.
You know a night at the movies is expensive! Tickets are close to $10 each (or more depending on where you live). Add popcorn, and the cost of taking a typical family of four out to the latest movie could be $60 to $70 or more. It seems you don’t even get much of a discount for matinees anymore.
One thing we’ve done to save money is to go to our local “dollar” theater. Most towns have a theater where you can see movies that have been out for a few weeks, and the cost is anywhere from $1 to $3 or $4. There are a few films that we sometimes feel like we have to see right away, but for the rest, this is a good choice. We really prefer this to waiting for the DVD to come out, since you still get to see the movie on the “big screen.”
You’ll also want to check out Rene’s post here, and see where she got discounted movie tickets online for her family. She walks you through how it works, but Rene saved OVER 50% on her tickets and was able to print them out before leaving home. Now that is an awesome deal!
Thanks Rene for sharing another money-saving idea!
