Find the reason behind nail biting online

If you are spending money on solutions to put an end to nail biting, it could pay to instead get to the bottom of WHY you are doing it! Nail biting is associated with anxiety, because the act of chewing on nails reportedly relieves stress, tension, or boredom. People who habitually bite their nails often report that they do so when they feel nervous, bored, lonely, or even hungry. For more information, visit this link:

Many meals from one rolled roast

I have found a way to get maximum meals and value from one single rolled roast. I bought a rolled pork roast which was way too big for just the two of us. Not wanting to be living on leftovers all week, I decided to cut it in half before cooking it. As I was about to place the uncooked half in the freezer, I decided to cut it into thinner slices and use the meat as pork chops instead. This has worked well! I also plan to cut the rolled roast into chunks in future, to use for stir fry, sweet and sour pork and so on. Normally you could never get pork chops or stir fry for $7.99 a kilo! There's no reason why you couldn't use this method with other rolled roasts too.

The real cost of spending

I have turned my love of a good bargain into something far more valuable! Whenever I am tempted to buy something I could possibly do without, I first calculate how much we would save by paying that money into our mortgage instead. For example, I recently saw a new dress on sale for $49.99 - a bargain, right? However, I paid a quick visit to a mortgage calculator website and discovered that if I didn't buy the dress and put that money onto our mortgage instead, it would take a whole month off the loan term and save us $334.39c in interest. In other words, my 'bargain' dress would really cost me over $300!

Looking at my purchases this way has become a really easy and effective way to curb my spending habit. Now I carry a piece of paper in my wallet with various prices on and I can see how much I would really be spending. It's amazing how much stronger my willpower becomes when I check my piece of paper before buying something and find out what its real cost is!

Polar fleece for streak free cleaning

I use polar fleece squares for face washers as they foam up well and are very soft. Recently, the kids had just hopped out of the bath and I noticed that there was a lot of foam on the glass doors (we have a bath/shower combo) so I gave them a quick wipe and noticed that the window came away clean with no streaks. My mother has a shower screen that we have tried every product known to cleaning on over the past ten years with no great success. She tried this and was absolutely amazed at the result! Clean, clear and streak free.

Please try it - just polar fleece and warm water. You will save a fortune as polar fleece is only about $6.00 per metre (buy good quality as it will work better) and you will not need to use any more toxic chemicals. I also use polar fleece as nappy liners, general cleaning cloths, and dusting and dishwashing cloths. Great for cleaning and polishing stainless steel also!
