What I would do with $220 in savings? Spend it Wisely.


By now, everyone should know about the ActiveRain and Kodak Contest: What Would You Do With the Money You Save on Ink,  What would I do with $220 in savings.....Well, I would buy my husband a new printer. 

His printer's ink cartridges are not cheap.  At least once a month, he walks into my office complaining that he has to go out and buy an ink cartridge.  He was doing this so often that he started buying three cartridges at a time.  The ink always ran out when he was in the middle of printing important documents that he needed ASAP.

 

The expletives he uses are not for this post :)  It is not only irritating for him, but for me as well....as I have to listen to his complaining about his printer's ink cartridges.  So, I would use the money to purchase him a

....... Oh wait, I just realize if I win, I not only get $220, but  a printer too...... a Kodak ESP 6150 Office,  plus an extra $100 for ink cartridges. 

What a DEAL!!!

 

moneyOkay, so what will I use the $220 for...I could use the money

  • to help pay for my Board and MLS dues, a total of $510, due by December 1st;
  • to buy Christmas gifts (I have 9 siblings and many, many, many nieces, nephews, and great nieces/nephews;
  • to help charities...there are so many this time of the year asking for donations;
  • to give to my church to help families in need of food and presents for Christmas;
  • to help pay for utilities this winter, especially if the winter is like last years...cold, very cold!
  • buy something nice for my husband as he would not be using expletives with the new printer.


I could go on and on of what I would do with the extra $220, but you get my drift ..... I would spend it wisely.

 

Footnote:  “This post is for the ActiveRain 'I could save $220 with Kodak Contest. I have a chance to win a free Kodak Printer, $$220 in cash to use for the idea in my blog post, and an extra $100 to use toward ink!.”

Rebecca, spending $220 wisely is not an easy task. No matter what you do, you quickly spend that money. Unless , of course, you put it in the bank and then live 1000 years to grow it (LOL)

As for the printer, I use an excellent Xerox solid ink printers, and no comparison to the ink jets

I know what you mean about your husband...my printer is constantly running out of ink, it seems. At least I have the foresight to keep some extra cartridges around.
