Well, I am toying with the idea of doing some childcare. I haven't done it since I was a teen and the fee was $2 an hour. If I was to drive to the parents house 5 days a week or keep the child at my home 5 days a week, what kind of price should I ask for?

I know some of you do this, and thought you could help me. thanks!
GROCERY CHALLENGE: Well, I only started keeping up with how much I spend on groceries in Dec. For the last two months (Dec. and Jan.) I have spent $340 and $320.

Ok. Here it is. ***I saved some change form last year. My cange jar on Jan 1 is at 13.48. ***I have a little over 3200.00 in credit card debt ***I have 845.00 in savings. My goals are: ***credit card gone this year *** savings up to at least 4000.00 for a new roof. After these are done I will rethink more goals. I also will be doing small challenges to help meet the goals.
