Survey Income Cashout
The surveys have been hitting my email inbox in record numbers the past few weeks. After finishing a survey last night, I checked my member reward point status and decided it was time to request another check. Opinion Outpost allows members to request a cashout with a minimum of just 50 points but I don’t [...]
Day 261: Car Stereo, Nalgene Bottle, & Skirt Hangers (plus incoming $)
Total Spent Today: $298.31
Net Spent Today: $243.33
REI — ($50.13)
As I mentioned in yesterday’s post, I collected all of our old Nalgene bottles (well, all the ones the kids could find — one of The Daughter’s is still missing) to return for a refund/store credit. The return process took a couple of minutes but overall went very [...]
Alternative Income

eCrater and Wagglepop sales

Sales.
First, I had multi-item purchase from my eCrater store. Not half an hour later, someone purchased three items from my Wagglepop store. Even better, both buyers paid immediately through Paypal [...]
Return on our Clothing "Investments"
The last of my eBay auctions ended yesterday. It certainly doesn’t take a financial genius to realize that Hanna Andersson was clearly the leading brand for getting a return on my clothing “investments.”
I hope you can guess that I’m speaking tongue-in-cheek here about viewing clothing expenditures as investments. Still, I can’t argue with the fact [...]

Barnes & Noble — $21.41
Thief of Time by Terry Pratchett — the last book I owned The Son in exchange for the Best Buy gift card he was never going to get around to using
Infinity in Your Pocket — a really cool little hard-back reference book with all kinds of theorems and formulas
Anguished English — [...]
