tip of the week (7/5/2009)

July 5 – July 11, 2009 this week’s "tip of the week" was sent from Lori, from Detroit, MI

Lori writes: " Most of us have a coin jar, but loose change also ends up under the sofa cushions, in drawers and in the laundry room. Did you know that the average American household has about $90 in change floating around? At our house, we make finding change a game for our kids…and a way to get them to clean! We assign each of them a section of the house and they have to really get down and dirty cleaning/looking for change. At the end of the day, they can keep all the change the found and purchase a special treat! You’d be surprised how much they find…and how clean your house looks!”
