Birthday Party Tips

Regardless of the age of the celebrant, a party will always have an effect on the budget. But there are several ways to cut down the cost when you are having a party whether in your home or in a selected venue:

-Plan.Have a theme. For kiddie party this means having an overview of what you will need. Your theme will guide you on what to buy and prepare.

-Is it cake or cupcake? Some people prefer not to serve their cakes after the candle blowing, if you are the thrifty type then cake might work on you. If you feel like letting everyone have their sweet treat, a cupcake for everyone is a good option.

-RSVP. Knowing how many people will make it to your celebrations will reduce the cost and left over ( maybe just enough for bento)

-Use the internet. There are so many available downloads for you to partake. You can download games, coloring pages, invitations, thank you tags, everything.

-Ask people to participate. Cooking and preparations are the hardest task if you cannot afford catering. By recruiting friends and relatives to give you a helping hand, you are not only cutting cost but making them "part" of this celebration.

-Enjoy your party and the guests.(it's free and the main purpose of all the things you've done)

A Value for Your Peso

As a college student who lived in my monthly allowance of less than a three-thousand (< P 3,000.00) pesos a month, I have learned to stretch my monthly allowance and imposed discipline to my shopper self. I scouted different shopping places where I can have more value for my peso than that so convenient 24-hour store nearby.

As a student, I've found bookstores who offers second hand books or even brand new books for cheaper prices. I was also able to look for income generators that can supply my Christmas-shopping money for the holiday season.

What I did not learn however is to take a portion of whatever I had for a lifetime savings.




As a working woman, I find it harder to spend less knowing that I am spending my own money. But as I reached my late twenty's, I've learned control and money management. Although I am not million dollar richer since I started earning for myself, I was able to save some for the rainy days. And I am going to blog here ways that might help students and career people like me to cope up with daily living cost.

This blog is all about stretching your peso and dollar. A contribution to frugal and cheapskate individuals without over stretching the money and ignoring quality.
