I think the fact he went through the after effects of the depression and he had to leave school at age 12 to go work in order to help bring money into the family home really made him appreciate the value of a dollar and its done his darnest to have this rub off on all us kids.<br /><br />I am definately a saver, not a spender (I love retail therapy, but will bargain hunt and shop around to get the absolute best deals). If the Las Vagas trip is next year then there is plenty of time to start putting some pennies away and save for it. Its just a matter of making it a priority and being willing to make a few scarfices to make it a reality. <br /><br />If your not one to pop $20 or 30 away for a rainy day, its not too late to start. I ferret away min $50 a week and have done for ages. I just pretend that its a bill and it is an auto payment that leaves my a/c each week. I forget about that bit of money earnt each week as it goes out at the same time as my pay goes in so I never have it in my account to tempt me. Its amazing how quickly such a small scarifice adds up.Name: Lynisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09623187338341139349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5959116691191826594.post-51108498818964339202011-10-05T13:11:35.105+13:002011-10-05T13:11:35.105+13:00I think it is a great idea.

Maybe you could approach some of the companies that sponsor the Meet & greet you hold, maybe in return for some product promotion they would be willing to help with costs.<br /><br />It would also give you ideas on the one you hold here which would enhance their brands.Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17809180814553643509noreply@blogger.com
