I am ALWAYS looking for good deals - here are a list of good ones for Labor Day! ~Erin

It's sad to realize that the season is winding down. But, indeed, Labor Day is here.

Have you seen the new TV show all about “extreme couponing” ? Lots of people are going to more extreme lengths to save money in these tough economic times. Do you collect coupons?

I've never been one to wait until the last day, but have several friends who do that...do you? This year should be pretty interesting for us tax wise. Two jobs, two states, moving and all that stuff. If you do wait until the last minute, make sure you have everything postmarked by midnight on Monday April 18th this year.
