Paint Edger Tool

This tool is a paint edger that will help you neatly paint edges.  It keeps paint off of areas you don’t want paint on.

Please note, I paid 50 cents for this item in a second hand store but will be using it shortly to paint my utility shed.

Finances – Helpful Hints

I have a lot to say about this one but what really matters is not how much you make but how much you can save.  Sounds easy, but it’s not.  Think about it this way, if you make a million dollars and spend a million dollars you have nothing in the bank, right?

Whatever you do always think before spending your hard-earned money.  If possible, think about alternatives but not to the point that you cannot make a decision.  For instance, if you need a toothbrush, don’t go to five stores to compare the price of toothbrushes, you’ll just waste time and gas.

Use coupons whenever possible.  Check out second hand stores or garage sales for items you need.  Plant a garden and eat what you grow.  Make home repairs and keep things maintained.  Learn to use a paint roller and paint brush.  (Over the years, doing my own house painting has actually saved me thousands of dollars).

Good old common sense will take you far.  Like the old tractor slowly making Its way across the field, being sure and steady will help you make your savings grow.
