Hi all! I’m looking forward to a nice long weekend. I know it’s not a long weekend for everyone, but if it is for you – happy long weekend! If it isn’t – Happy Friday!
What did I blog about this week?
- My stats for the month of July 2012
- Modest Money’s 6 month blogging anniversary
- A guest post on what to do if you can’t pay your bills
- 8 quick and easy ways to save on groceries
And here are some of my favourite posts around the blogosphere this week:
- He’s a TV star! Modest Money was interviewed by Global BC News.
- The Grocery Game Challenge – July 30-Aug 5. Mr. CBB is really drawing them in with his grocery challenges. And the picture of the brownies looks super yummy!
- I don’t even have a backback by Erika at From Shopping to Saving.
- How My Part Time Job Became My Passion at Making Sense of Cents.
- Is Mo’ Money Mo’ Houses Personal Finance Enough? Great, introspective post.
- Six Ways to plan a wedding on a budget by Prairie Eco-Thrifer.


Good Morning.. Happy Friday!! Thanks for the link love! Yes those brownies took me a while to perfect ( to the way we like them… fudgy). Try them out some time and let me know what you think. As for the grocery game I think more Canadians are starting to realize they have to take back control and start paying attention to their financial health. A nice chunk of money each month is spent at the grocery store or eating out. If we can hold ourselves accountable to our grocery budget and start eating healthy and from scratch we will all benefit in the long run. Cheers and enjoy your weekend. Mr.CBB

Happy Friday before a long weekend. Can’t get much better than that. We were joking yesterday that people were already shutting down and that many will try leave early today. I can’t wait.
Thanks for the inclusion again this week and I hope you have a great weekend.

lol I didn’t even know Monday was a holiday. It wouldn’t affect me but I think I was supposed to finally switch over to working at my employer’s office next week. So that at least buys me one more day.
And thanks for mentioning your favorite TV personality
Enjoy your long weekend!

Miss T – Yes, today was pretty much a write off for me.
MM – Thank you. You’ll be star going in Monday!
