I am a social worker, which is quite rewarding and challenging at times. I would say one of the most fun things it has helped teach me is how to save. We all know that social work pays in other ways than financially. This has taught me to learn to stretch my paychecks as far as they can go. Yes, sometimes I shop too much and buy fruitless items; however, I am catching on to the art of couponing and sweepstakes.
I love to enter contests and sweepstakes in the evenings after a long day at work. I also enjoy racking up coupons to take on my shopping trips. The sound of savings is one of the most beautiful sounds that I know. I know it is a bit dorky but freebies make my day. Whenever I am in a bad mood but come home to prizes or freebies, my entire mood shifts.
My boyfriend always tells me that I should find a hobby that I enjoy. Well to me, saving is my hobby! It is an art and I am loving learning it along the way.
