I am piggybacking this off of Catherine's post about the MMM blog about individual 10 dollar increments, and how they add up.
That is why I put this here and not in consumerism or something similar.
My question is, how do you save that $10 she is writing about? I thought if anyone wanted to contribute an idea or two, it would help inspire us to save that $10 to invest, like the blog is talking about.
We make our own laundry soap, which saves us $10 every month or two.
We use the Duggar recipe.
We make our own dog food. We can use things like apples from our tree or the five dollar bags of carrots from the gas station. The price of dogfood has risen more than college tuition! Not sure how much this saves us as we supplement with the incredibly expensive dogfood, but our dogs stay healthier on what we make ourselves as we can really watch the ingredients.
