$ave on Auto Insurance

Sometimes it's easy to stay in the same rut when it comes to paying bills. Like a machine, I simply go online, pay my bills each month, without question. But I will say, that there have been a few times that certain bills, such as my land line/Internet bill would seem a tad high. Sure enough, I would actually take the time out to view my bill on these months only to witness, a third party charge.
I hate that.
Extra phone calls to make, extra hastle. Car insurance can be just as bad. I know that there have been times that we would continue to pay for car insurance, even though we weren't even using that car very often. And I'm supposed to be the thrifty mom around here!
Well, rest assured, we just took a vehicle off recently and sure enough it dropped our insurance down $100 over a six month period.
Go figure. It's the simple things. The little things that can help up save money in the long run! I know that sometimes it's confusing trying to find cheap car insurance because we don't know where to look, but we would never know what we were missing out on if we didn't at least check it out! Maybe we are paying too much, and a better company is out there that could bring our monthly bill down. Money in your pocket!

THREE SIMPLE WAYS TO SAVE MONEY ONLINE

1- If you sign up for a free trial for an online subscription service, MARK ON YOUR CALENDAR the date the free service ends. Companies love to gain customers this way because it's easy for people to forget to cancel, and you WILL be charged monthly after the free trial!

2- Purchase postage for your packages ONLINE. Certain postal services such as USPS give you a discount when you pay online rather than at the post office. 

3- Skip the DMV. Use their online services. Renewing vehicle registrations and drivers licences are both cheaper when you do it online as opposed to going to the DMV. Who wants to wait in their lines anyways?

Original 13 Colonies Fact Cards (Free Printable)

These Thirteen Colonies Fact Cards were created for my kids as we studied early American history. What a pivotal time in our history!

Use them to drill the first thirteen colonies so your child can recite them with ease, and have them dictate the information on the cards to help them remember a small fact about each colony. Feel free to print these out and have your children write facts that they learn about each colony on the back. Go ahead and laminate them, too!    Simply right-click, save, and print to use this resource in your homeschool as you study about the original thirteen colonies in America.

With lessons, field trips, meals, and unexpected errands filling up your week, even the simplest chore chart can help your home run more smoothly.

The Pencil Grip Inc. {Review}

We have found what we have been looking for in The Pencil Grip Inc .'s 24 pack of Magic Stix Washable Markers . These markers are the perfect fit for a homeschooling family such as ours. I am thrilled to tell you about our experience with them! Normally, I do not have a favorable impression of markers for several reasons. For one, as a kid, I remember markers having such a strong smell that it would give me a headache. I know some kids enjoyed the scents but it certainly was not for me. And to be honest, if I had markers like that in my house today, my kids would probably stick them up their nose or something. Another reason I have a distaste for markers is the drying out factor. As a parent of many children this is super frustrating. I finally teach the older ones to put the caps back on when they are done using their markers but then a younger one comes along and just doesn't understand. This then leads to the undue frustration of your child sitting down to...
