I Like to Ride My Bicycle, I Like to Ride My Bike !

  When I am shopping with cash, I never give correct change.  I always use paper and save the metal.  Sometimes my purse can get very heavy (makes a good weapon) before I empty the coins it into the jar.  With the help of the change from my cash register after each of our Jenks Family Grill events, I am able to save around $350 in a year that way.  Not bad.


  Well, I took some of that money and went out and bought myself a bicycle.  A CRUISER !  And it's PURPLE !  I love it.  The kids and I have been making trips around town to run errands:  the library, the bank, to buy plants for the garden.    I have found that we can make it around town just about as fast as we can in the car, with the added benefit of a little exercise.

  2. After I read this I kept thinking about what a good idea it was to save your change for a year. So I stuck a pretty jar on my counter and Kevin and I are saving for next years' anniversary. Thanks D!
