    Default Shell, you're a star!

    Shell, I just wanted to say how much I like the way you motivate people to save.  Your challenges are always cheery and even though saving is tough for most of us, you make it sound achievable, and fun. 

    I'm sure you help a lot of ladies to start saving and to stick with it.  For a number of reasons, I don't contribute much the frugal threads, but I want you to know that I read most of them and I really admire your approach. Keep up the good work!

    OMGoodness, you guys are making me cry. (Happy tears of course.) How sweet of you to take the time to say it. I guess I feel very strongly and motivated by it as I used to struggle hard to save money and I just finally got it! Pay yourself first and take a little off EACH cheque and put it away before you can spend it.

    Thanks again.

    You're a great saving cheerleader Shell! Keep up the good work and gentle nudges ( and even some not so gentle nudges are fine too ).
