All About Spelling My Half Way Through the Program Review Review of the All About Spelling Level 1 My Background I have taught reading, writing, math, organization, and social/emotional/behavioral in a special education classroom for 4 years.

50% Income Decrease How We Survived My Top 5 Money Saving Tips 1. No Cable -  We asked our internet and cable provider to take off our on demand cable service. This took $70-$100 off of our bill and that money went to other things. We have Nextflix ($10 a month) that we can watch on our TV and our family enjoys watching YouTube together. 2. No Name Brand Clothing -  This was a huge change for me. I enjoyed buying my 8 year old son clothes from Mini Boden and Tea collection because the quality was amazing. I cut out name brand clothing for my son and replaced it with cheaper options form Target and Old Navy. The only exception to this rule is that I do buy name brand jackets and shoes for my son (which are great for resale on eBay). His clothing expenses went from $400-$800 per season to $150-$300 per season. 3. No Eating Out -  When I was working full time it was really convenient to pick up fast food a few times a week and we would g...
