Recession has hit home!

So - since my last post, I had a baby girl (mashaAllah) and finances are stretched even more thin. Maternity leave is done and now within a year we went from two full time incomes for 2 people, to one full time income for 5 people. Let me say, ALHAMDULILLAH for the one income.


Now the key is finding ways to have each penny go as far as it can.

Let me be honest - I am NOT a money saving guru by any means. In fact, it has been a struggle to get where I am money wise today! But as things work for me, I'll post and hopefully they work just as well for you.

SO - let's kick this recession in the bum and get to wise money managing!

In a previous post, I spoke about meal planning. Well, let's just say I didn't follow my own advice. Now's my chance, right? Next grocery shopping trip will be a well calculated attack on over spending! InshaAllah!

What is your #1 tip on money or time saving?
