Extra Ways to Make Money

Team Pancakes is determined to completely be debt free within the year.  

I have been debt free for over a year now however since we are married...my husband's debt is also my debt.  Therefore, we have decided to tackle the beast that is his student loans together and get raid of it!! The couple that fights debt together wins together!! 

We can't wait to have no debt payments and we can actually focus on building up our 8-months Emergency Fund and saving toward the house of our dreams!

So in an effort to make some extra to support this venture I thought i would compile this little list, 

which I hope helps you too.

1.  Blogging....it all demands on what types of affiliate programs you are using.  Some websites also allow you to do reviews if  you are interested in doing this (blogvertise and linkvehicle)

2.   Poshmark (like ebay and amazon) it's an awesome way to sell clothes, shoes and accessories you do not need or use.  Even Baby Pancakes has gotten into the action--he sold his first Baby Jordans which he never wore because his mama forgot to put it on him.

3. Glyde--sell your old iphones and other electronics including games.  I wish I had games to sell.  I am finding out that people will buy anything and everything you may NOT have a use for.

4. Get a Part-time job...which is how i paid off all my debts.  It can be something you do on the weekends or during the week.  Sometimes it's bothersome because you don't get to spend the extra time with your family but the pay off is so worth it in the long run. 

5. Save extra money for your monthly income....it's amazing how much extra money we spend during the month on nothing really important.  Having a budget for the month helps with finding extra money.

These are some ideas I have...can you think of any others

 that would be helpful for me and my fellow readers?

Good luck in saving some extra money this month...

it's amazing how much extra can be saved by following some or all of these steps.

Monday Randoms

1.  The weather is dreary and cold and just plain old nasty. 

 All i wanted to do today was crawl in bed and cuddle some more with Baby Pancakes. 

I want sun and sunshine, flowers and rainbows, warmth and comfort and everything cozy that summer brings.  But i don't have that so i dream and hope for this weather to pass and for summer to come.

2.  I am currently addicted to Candy Crush...it's such an awesome and fun game.

  BUT the fact that i suck at it and keep failing the levels is not fun at all. 

Plus when my lives run out i have to wait for it to replenish since i refuse to purchase lives.

 Who came up with that idea....paying to become more addicted games online. 

Crazy i tell you.

3.  My Baby Pancakes has been taking steps. 

 One and two steps at a time and then he falls.  But little man is getting strength in his legs. 

 It's such an awesome thing to watch.  God is amazing in the way he does things. 

4. We had one of our friends come and visit this weekend from TN. 

And i always used to both Mr. Pancakes about finding other couples to be friends with. 

And i believe this couple is going to be that couple. 

You know the ones, both Mr. Pancakes and i get along with.  

The couple/family that we will take vacations with and plan fun activities with. 

 I am so glad they are who they are because it's so wonderful. 

 We are already planning our next family trip.

5. Mother's Day is coming up and I can't believe I will be part of that celebration this year.

  I can't wait until Baby Pancakes can make me fun and awesome drawings and colorings.

Those are the best kind of Mother's Day Gifts!!

6. And last but not least...Today is Monday and the Voice live shows begin. 

 So excited for the artists and that man below.

Longlazysunday: Week 26

This has been a long weekend because we had the opportunity to play tourists this weekend. Our friends from TN came to visit and were took them around town and showed them the sites and sounds in our area. Of course there is never enough time to do everything you want to do...but nonetheless it was fun to spend time with friends/family. We can't wait to see them again!! We just dropped them off at the airport and hoping to spend the rest of today enjoying a longlazysunday!!!
