That’s all I need. I’ve got about 250 left on my car. It’s been so much easier since I’ve been trying to save everything I can. I’ve still got that cushion I need in the bank, too!

How I did it
It made me
Broke. 
How I did it: I found that one of my tires had a nail stuck in the sidewall. Since my car is 4WD, I had to replace all of my tires.In order to afford that and other expensive repairs to my car, I had to get a credit card through firestone. Now I'm working through payments and so close to being broke. At least I've got new tires. Read how I did it…
It made me
Happy with life. 
How I did it: Honestly, I just had to make the choice that I wanted to be there. I knew it made my weeks better no matter what. It might be hard and there may be excuses, but you just have to set them aside. I go to church almost every week now. Read how I did it…
It made me
geeky
How I did it: I told my boyfriend to come over to my house for a day of Lord of the Rings and nothing more. He hadn't seen the last movie, so watching the first two before it would be worth it. I popped some corn, fluffed up the pillows on the couch, grabbed a blanket, snuggled up, and pressed play. Read how I did it…

I went on a gluten free/wheat free diet. Hard to do, admittedly, but completely, 100% worth it.
My skin is currently healing and my face is completely cleared up. The eczema on my hands is going away and it itches less.
For anyone trying to clear up skin, I would highly recommend researching this and doing it.
Almost!

I had it for a bit and then car payments rolled back around. I WILL save this money and KEEP it there.
