Here Is her system: "The only way to save Is to save. When I have actually saved a quarter I put It Into a thrift stamp without delay. de-lay. If I save that quarter on one thing and then spend It carelessly for something else, I have not saved any real money. "For example, the other day I want down town expecting to pay $10 for a pair of special shoes To my surprise, I found there whs a sale that day, and got the very pair of shoes I wanted for $7.75. I had saved $2.25. But how to keep it saved. I knew that If I simply regarded It mentally as savlug, before the end of the month It would be spent miscellaneously. I went right down stairs in the store and bought nine thrift stamps and stuck those quarters In the thrift card where they could not get away before the end of the month. I I do the same thing when I have saved a single quarter or half dollar, and I 1 am seriously thinking of getting a little penny bank to hold saved pennies or dimes until they grow to thrift stamp site. What Is more, I am getting a whole lot of fun cut of this most fascinating fas-cinating game, the game of 'Getting Ahead.' " |
