I am still activating a new phone every two months since I have 10 left. I bought them with Office Depot ink coupons for recycling ink cartridges years ago for about $2 each (instead of the normal $10). I forward my Google Voice number to my home phone and my TracFone so I can receive calls anywhere. Of course I only get 20 minutes every 2 months instead of 120 minutes every 3 months, but I don't use it much. I've seen new TracFones for $7.99 recently.

Laughed out loud when I saw the TracFone item. I bought a tracfone for 10 bucks with double minutes and spend $20 every 3 months to keep it active. It came with the double minutes thing so it works out to less than 7$ a month. Great value and super coverage plus I get to keep my number. LOL! Great post.

I've been throwing out a lot of stuff, I think the less clutter the better you feel anyway. And I'm not sure if it was tongue and cheek, but I just did get rid of my health insurance. Paying 115 dollars a month in case something happens? Ridiculous! If I do get hurt I'll go to a place that offers a sliding scale fee. Screw the insurance companies! :wink: Awesome read.

Keeping good quality supplies are a must.

You will save money in the long run and it is better for the environment. If you throw away dead batteries they end up in the landfill where they leak toxic chemicals.

Yeah, some of them are tongue-in-cheek.You can also save time by keeping a journal of everything you do. Which ironically costs time, but it helps in the long run by keeping you accountable. So the overhead can be worth it. Thank you. Yeah, some of them are tongue-in-cheek.
