All around the globe, people are talking about the economy.... "hey, my paycheck bounced!" or "I went to the office and my key didn't work anymore"..."my boss's cell phone has been shut off and I went to his house and it was gone" stuff like that. For the regular working guy or gal it's just "hard times" out there.
So, this weekend I had decided to collect every bit of spare change in my life and head to the coinstar machine for something larger than pennies. (paying for gas and soda in pennies can be kinda embarassing). As my car was idling, waiting to turn into the grocery store parking lot, the less than gentle rattle of my muffler had just lulled me into a trance when the answer hit me! grün can help all these people! See the plan below:
1. COLLECT ALL YOUR SPARE CHANGE - put all your nickles and dimes in the same place because they really do add up. I had just dug more change out of my car than my dog Shep weighs! (actually $45 worth) and....the perfect way to encourage you to collect your spare change.... a Blue Q motivational tin bank from grün. now, every time you have an extra penny or dime, you can look to your Blue Q bank for that inspiration to save.
Some favorites are: I'm savin' up for therapy tin bank, I'm savin up to fight terrorism tin bank, I'm savin' up to be a millionaire tin bank, & I'm dream wedding tin bank...
Also see... I'm savin' up to clone my cat, i'm savin' up to quit my job, i'm savin' up for some good weed and more!
2. A PENNY SAVED IS A PENNY EARNED. - benjamin franklin (and my friend colin) a couple of pretty smart guys. if you see a quarter in the middle of the sidewalk stop and pick it up. (beware of glued quarters... just pretend to tie your shoe and come back later with something toxic to scrape it of the walk.) or if it's to grimy to reach into your couch, wear some rubber gloves and take a deep breath. remember change is everywhere!
3. CARRY YOUR NEWFOUND WEALTH IN STYLE. once you have saved and scrounged, the best way to carry those crisp new benjamins is in a stylish blueq coin purse.
a few favorites include: if the shoe fits, buy it, dope, & feed the coin beast (my personal favorite).
also see: coffee the last cheap drug, gas stash & strictly gambling money.
4. MAKE YOUR MONEY LAST - buy your gifts and stationery from shopgrun.com and get free shipping on orders over $50. your bucks will go a long way!
now that you have the tools to manage your money, good luck on your journey to become recession free! happy days are here again....

Sweet. Blueq is a new friend.
How about pay me 25 cents every time you say "cute" bank? Recession no more!
Hope you are well. I have thought of you often in the last year. Looks like business is great. Truly hope so.
