I like this article. It is kind of like the saying that there is very few ways to save a hundred dollars at a time, but that there is many ways to save a dollar at a time.
I think that for most people this is the main problem. Thinking it is only a dollar and the next thing we know it has been twenty.
Thanks for the link.

That is so true! We've decided to give up chips and soda. It's amazing what a difference it makes on your bill every month.
