Brandy’s trip is right around the corner! I’m getting so excited for her to enjoy WDW for the first time with her family.
I’m starting to get a little nervous about making my goal. I have a little under 2 months left to earn/save for my trip. Either way, I still think I’ve done a wonderful job! I would have never dreamed that I would be able to find and earn over $4,000 in a little under a year. The thing that gets me is that it wasn’t even hard! I have been using Swagbucks and all the money saving apps for at least 3 years. I just needed to be telling my found money where to go, just like I tell my budgeted money where to go.
Thankfully Swagbucks has been really good to me this month. I’m hoping it stays that way for a few more months. It seems Ibotta is offering more bonuses and that helps as well. Checkout 51 is also on FIRE lately. Another good addition to my fund is that my chickens are laying again now that the warmer weather has arrived. I’m getting around 16 eggs a day, which is great since we only eat 3 dozen a week. That gives me 6 dozen extra a week that I can sell at $4.00 a dozen. I am going room by room checking closets and drawers to find things to sell. I am really surprised by all the stuff I’m finding. I don’t know how all this stuff got missed in previous clean outs.
Swagbucks – $75.00 Paypal
Ibotta – $27.50
Panel I got into through Swagbucks – $220.00 (This is from a few months)
