Using cash in envelopes is a wonderful way to only spend what you have - this was a BIG part of our financial planning when we were first married! Keep up the great work I know you will accomplish your goals!! Have you considered meal planning? I have noticed I am saving a lot more on groceries since I started monthly meal planning! I also started using coupons last month - I saved 25 dollars! Keeping all the receipts and tallying them up has been a real encouragement! :) This is a fantastic post!

Other ways to sell your stuff is through CraigsList, eBay, or Amazon. Some areas also have Thrifty Nickle, a local paper in which you can put ads for your stuff for sale. I see everything from cars to wedding dresses (basically every item under the sun) advertised in it. College students can sell their used textbooks to other students for a little more than the bookstore will give you to 'buy back' books, and still save the other student money by charging them less than the bookstore would. You could also sell your time and talent. I know a gal who helps out a retiree a few times a week by running her errands (she can't drive), helping with the shopping, and some light cleaning (dishes, dusting, and the like) for a nice chunk of change. You could make a bunch of whatever craft you do and sell at a local craft show. Or how about holding a bake sale?
