I got this from Amy of www.momadvice.com
My sister found this great website and ordered the cutest pair of
glasses from this company. All of the glasses are $39 (thus the
website name) and that includes your prescription lenses! It is an
unbelievable price and the frames are actually cute.
I would highly recommend this site to anyone who is in need of glasses
and especially parents of children who lose, damage, or neglect the
care of their glasses.
The site is http://www.39dollarglasses.com

Meal planning Week of Feb 20th
After my creative funk last week...
Sun Steak and cheese subs, french fries, salad
Mon kielbasa and baked beans
Tues Hamburger and dirty rice mixture, probably in stuff peppers
Wed Bisquick Chicken Salsa
Thurs Over Mom for Dinner
Friday Leftovers....
Saturday Homemade pizza
I have veggies on the side for most of these. Some frozen brocooli, canned corn, green beans will probably be on the side for atleast each night. Usually salad for me as well. Sometimes soup-great deal on tomato soup last week at Save a lot.
We have been doing really well with no eating out. So planning meals for me is key.
Enjoy your savings!

How Aggressively Should You Pay Down Your Mortgage?
At Morningstar, we spend most of our time trying to help investors identify the best stocks and mutual funds for their goals.
But it's the decisions you make before you invest in stocks or funds that have the biggest impact on whether you meet your goals or not. For instance, you know that saving even a little bit more each month can have a huge effect on the size of your eventual nest egg. But deciding what to do with those savings is a thornier issue. For instance, should you pay down your outstanding debts? Or invest in the market?

529 plans college savings
I finally got my butt in gear and got the 529 plans set up my 3 year old twins. I had been investing $100 a month in a Janus mutual fund years before I even had children. I will stop the contribution to that and divide that $100 into the two 529 plans from Fidelity investments. We have been contributing into a 529 into my 6 yr son's plan for years now.
What is a 529 Plan?
529 Plan accounts are flexible accounts specifically designed for college savings. Qualified distributions from a 529 Plan account are federal income tax-free1. The plans were named after Section 529 of the IRS code that created them.
What steps are you taking to plan for your children's college costs? Do you think parents should pay for college? Or should little Johnnie pay for his college tutition?

Make your meal stretch the whole week
With a little advance planning you can crank your stove into autopilot and get a week's worth of meals on the table faster than you can complain about having to do so. Chef Kathleen Daelemans, author of Getting Thin and Loving Food : 200 Easy Recipes to Take You Where You Want to Be was on the Today Show to share her meal stretching ideas. I often try to do this myself.
