Viewing the '$20 Challenge' Categorylonely weekOctober 15th, 2013 at 05:16 pmMy husband has gone to Florida to see his dad. He is 92 today. I use to go with him, but now with 2 dogs, I don't. However, I sure am missing him and so do both of the "girls" I have stayed home and had 3 no use gas days in a row, so that it $6 to add to the challenge. Another day!October 12th, 2013 at 06:01 pmWell, I have been a little lax about saving money lately. The Braves are finished until next April and I have not been paying attention as to whether the stock market goes up or down. I did have 3 no use gas days this week, so I will add $6 to the challenge money. Loan interestOctober 5th, 2013 at 06:28 pmI am making a personal loan to friends who are building a second vacation home. They pay me back the interest only every month. This week I got a check for $346.00 which I will add to the $20 challenge. Melrose C.U. large c.d.October 4th, 2013 at 09:28 pmI got credited for the interest due on my large c.d. at Melrose Credit Union. I was unsure if I wanted to tie up that much money for 5 years, but so far it has been a good decision. Melrose small c.d.October 4th, 2013 at 09:06 pmI am adding the interest earned at the Melrose credit union to my $20 challenge. This is interest earned on the small c.d. that I took out 2 years ago. The interest is paid quarterly. local interestOctober 2nd, 2013 at 09:28 pmI got paid $172 in interest from my local bank yesterday. I will add that plus other interest to the $20 challenge. As usual, social security!September 29th, 2013 at 06:17 pmI got my check again. I never cash it, I add it to the $20 challenge. Getting close to the $10,000 mark! rebateSeptember 29th, 2013 at 06:15 pmI got my rebate from the building supply company and am adding it to the $20 challenge. Chase checkSeptember 29th, 2013 at 06:13 pmI love getting this free money from Chase. My dh charges building supplies at Home Depot and they send me a check each month which I add to the $20 challenge. dividend checkSeptember 20th, 2013 at 09:58 pmI get two dividend checks every quarter. The one from Tim Horton came last week and MY wendy's check came today. I do believe in the drip program, but for some reason I am not enrolled in the Wendy's drip. I think cause they have changed several times over the years. Anyway, I will add it to the $20 challenge. Had to cancel bridgeSeptember 16th, 2013 at 09:26 pmWe had to cancel our bridge game today. One of the players had a sick dog, and animals always come befor bridge. Tim Horton checkSeptember 9th, 2013 at 08:54 pmI got a dividend check from Tim Horton today. I get one every quarter. I will add that to the challenge money. Grocery savingsSeptember 9th, 2013 at 08:50 pmI saved $5 using my Ingles advantage card today. As always, I added that to my $20 challenge. starbucks!September 8th, 2013 at 10:06 pmOur town is getting a Starbucks. They are putting it inside our Ingles grocery store. The cashier told me that a cup of coffee would cost $6. Could that be true? August interestSeptember 2nd, 2013 at 11:25 pmI am adding the interest that I earned in my bank accounts in August. I only earned $19 in my ING account.I have loaned out most of the money in that account to finance a new home that my friends are building. Chase checkSeptember 2nd, 2013 at 11:20 pmI got a $63 check from Chase credit card in the mail on Saturday. I get a chase check every month. I enjoy that! I will add it to the challenge. Grocery savingsAugust 31st, 2013 at 07:14 pmI did my grocery shopping on Tuesday. I saved $11 using my advantage card. The braves have won 4 gmes in a row, so that is a total of $15 I will add to the challenge. social security againAugust 28th, 2013 at 05:35 pmI got my s.s check from the govt. today. As always, i add it to the challenge. rebateAugust 28th, 2013 at 05:32 pmI got a #240 rebate from the building company we buy from. Of course, this is added to the challenge. coin jarAugust 28th, 2013 at 05:27 pmI took my coin jar into the bank yesterday. I got $42 to add to the challenge. Another interest checkAugust 24th, 2013 at 06:46 pmI received another interest check yesterday. This if for the loan I made to my friends to build a cabin. They are leaving for Europe this weekend, so they made the payment a week early. I will, of course, add it to the $20 challenge. new riding mowerAugust 23rd, 2013 at 05:28 pmWe had to go out and buy a new riding mower last night. DH has been trying to repair the old this entire summer. It just won't start and he has spent lots of time and money on it. Keep those checks coming!August 21st, 2013 at 10:41 pmI got another unexpected check today for over $7. I love it when surprise checks come in. The braves won today and it was a no use gas day, so I can add $10 to the $20 challenge. Pinecone checkAugust 18th, 2013 at 08:16 pmI ordered my pinecone check today. It was for a survey that I did almost a month ago. I wish they would just go back to mailing them after you complete the survey. I hate having to go online to order a $3 check. Edward Jones checkAugust 16th, 2013 at 07:02 pmI requested a check from Edward Jones for dividends that had built up in my account. The check was for $223 which will be added to my $20 challenge. What's this check for???August 9th, 2013 at 08:44 pmI got a check in the mail today for $84. It is from the electric company. I know it is for the spec house that we just sold. It is a refund, but I don't know what it is for? Suffice it to say, I will take it and be grateful! Thirteen in a row!August 8th, 2013 at 09:32 pmThe braves won their 13th game in a row, last night. Another $2 to add to the challenge. How about those braves!!August 6th, 2013 at 10:55 pmI have been adding a dollar to the $20 challenge every time the braves win. They have been on fire lately and i have not kept up with the challenge very well. Since they have won eleven games in a row, I am adding $11 to the challenge. Another interest check!August 4th, 2013 at 06:52 pmI received another interest check yesterday; this one was for $194. I loaned some friends enough money to build a cabin and they are supposed to pay me back the end of October. In the meantime, I am charging them 3% interest. I will add that to the challenge. More interestAugust 2nd, 2013 at 10:03 pmI picked up an extra $57 in interest from my new money market account which I will add to the $20 challenge. I also had a no use gas day, the stock market went up and the braves won their last two games.
