Saving money is all the rage.  People from all walks of life are talking about how to cut pennies and dollars from their total cost of living, but some ideas are…. not so effective.  In fact, many are down right silly!  Have you heard of a money-saving strategy that is more ridiculous than budget-changing?  We want to know about it!

What is the silliest way you’ve heard of (or done) to save money? Is there a method you’ve heard of that is more hype than helpful?…. Let us know your thoughts in order to be entered to win one of three $20 Amazon gift cards!  Feel free to link to a blog post, if you’ve written on this topic! We’ll include it in our post upon the conclusion of our giveaway!
