I’m wanting to save money for a down payment on a house. Please tell me some of the things you do to live frugally/save money.

I am planning my wedding for next January (2007). My fiance and I are on a very limited budget - I’m a chef/teacher and he is a full-time student planning to graduate this December. I need any money saving suggestions and location ideas (in the Dallas, Rockwall, Hunt, Collin County areas of Texas) anyone might have. I will probably end up doing my own cake unless anyone knows of someone great and cheap, but I don’t really want to do my own catering - at this rate we may not even do food. Please help!

I’m saving for something that costs about 3k-6k. I’m only 15, so I don’t think I can get a job or anything. I do babysit quite a bit and I plan on not spending any money. I’ll sell things and save up allowances until I reach my goal?

But does anyone have any other tips or methods to saving money?

My husband has a savings bond that has matured. Neither one of us has ever had a savings bond and we don’t know what to do with it. Any help would be great. Also it is in his name but it is also in his mothers name, who he hasnt seen in 31 years. Can he still cash it even tho someone elses name is on it too?

I’m not talking about with the use of financial institutions or the purchase of real property. What I’m asking is along the lines of something like using the cash to buy mowers and opening a small lawn service. Something of that nature.

I have $2000 saved specifically for the ring. I would like to buy a Princess cut diamond set in White Gold. I was planning on a 2 carat stone, but will probably go with 1.98ct or somewhere around there to save money, since it’s close enough to 2, and once you hit the 2ct mark, the price jumps significantly.) I want a Verragio Lumino setting, but could take the design to a local jeweler to have it copied, so to speak…
I own a home, IRA, 401k, have a safety net of 6-8 months and am set on the path towards retirement, (Not there yet, of course, but the plan is running its course.) This $2k that I have saved is literally set aside specifically for the ring. I have been with my GF for 5 years and we have been living together for over a year now. She’s the one and I’m ready to propose.

I am looking for creative financing options, other than dealer financing or tossing the loan onto credit cards or HELOCS. Anyone ever taken a part-time job at a jewelry store to save money? I’m 25yrsold
