Julie's right about what makes kids happy, especially when they're little. I remember the penny's yelling because they were pinched so hard and often. It seems I'm telling my daughter and her hubby the same thing these days - to make a game out of saving. I just heard of a web site called www.mommysavesbig.com for lots of coupons and deals. Hang in there and good luck with the job hunting!Beverlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08141839607761830294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6215765370967938019.post-49336095188174045622010-11-03T14:19:26.298-07:002010-11-03T14:19:26.298-07:00Jade, I'm so sorry!

Westin is so young though that he honestly won't care about not getting a big present. The good thing about that age is they are just as happy with the box as they are the toy! Good luck with the job hunting.senora_xhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08120215683786464878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6215765370967938019.post-52027512980358998752010-11-02T21:04:53.793-07:002010-11-02T21:04:53.793-07:00OK girl.

If it helps at all...1) Do you have something similiar to the Navy-Marine Corps Program that could offer you a no-cost/hardship loan? 2) What about a Seasonal Job? Even if it's at the PX or mall, giftwrapping, dog walking, babysiting, etc. 3)How about Craigslist or the Post Freecycle for the Big Boy Car Bed?...Not only does that sound like something that others might post, but you could even explain your situation & story along with your request. 4) Same for the clothes & or if you have a Mommmy Meetup.com or Military Moms type group, you could cordinate a Kids Clothes Swap! 5) Lastly, even just a trip to the Family Service Center to talk it all out might prove to be helpful. Hope That Helps!!
