Odd$ and End$ - The Tent Camping Edition

We are tent camping tonight. We are not experienced campers, but it is something that we want to venture into as a family. I'm not sure what to expect, because last summer when my 2 year old was one, we camped out one night and she was bouncing around the tent all night long. She couldn't fall asleep. It was too new for her, so I am a little nervous about tonight. Wish me luck!

Some of my favorite links this week:

• This is a great story about a secret millionaire who leaves her fortune to her hometown.


• Deliver Away Debt pulled together a comprehensive list of 600 Money Saving Tips from 96 different personal finance blogs.


• Len Penzo recruited 18 friends and family members for a store-brand vs. name brand blind taste test experiement.


• Money Funk has joined 4 other personal finance bloggers in a challenge to see who can spend the least amount of money in June. Get your debt under control and reduce your variable expenses.


• Ultimate Money Blog has a list of what you can compost. Check it out, you might be surprised.

Have a great weekend!
