How to Pinch Your Pennies in Daily Life to Confront Tight Economy




A New Reason to Pinch Your Pennies



Up until early this morning, pennies really bothered me. Smug in their copper brownness, the tiny coins are virtually worth nothing. With the exception of a few general stores left in small-town America where you can still buy penny candy, you can't purchase anything for a single cent. Nowadays a penny will buy you nothing, zip, zilch, nada. We're talking goose egg here.


How to Pinch Your Poultry Pennies
Shopping the sales, but still need to take the grocery budget to the next level? Figured out that poultry is cheap, but want it to be even cheaper? I've got your back. Following are several penny pinching poultry strategies, including how to feed four to six people from a single chicken breast.
Poultry is a penny pincher's dream. It's also yummy, widely popular and readily available throughout the world. It's also incredibly versatile. Here are some of the ways I put to work in our house.

Chop and dice.
I do this with boneless, skinless chicken and routinely am able to come up with 4-6 servings from a single breast. Some of the ways I stretch it? Stir fry over rice, lo mein, fajitas (you need thin strips for that one), chicken pot pie, tacos, chicken – pesto pizza, southwestern soup, etc. The more thoroughly you dice, the further it will stretch. Notice I didn't say “cube” the chicken. It's all about flavor and a more balanced intake of protein.

Search out some discount meat sources.
With as often as the ten pound bags of leg quarters, split bone-in breasts and full roasters go on sale, this is more of an issue when it comes to the boneless and skinless breasts, tenders and thighs. I have noticed at one of the warehouse stores we have a membership to consistently carries these for as low as the regular grocery chains have been selling the bone in varieties for. If you stretch the servings in ways that don't require an entire breast per person, you can still save some money (and stress) this way.

Creatively extend your rotisserie purchases.
The best deal I've seen on these is also at the warehouse stores. Sam's sells the fully cooked rotisserie birds for only fifty cents more than the raw roasters cost, at least at the few I've checked. If you've had a full day shopping, and that extra fifty cents will save you oven energy (not to mention skipping a take out meal), I say go for it. We've already discussed this as a way to save some sanity on days we are out and about. A pot of basmati rice and a three minute sauté of some skinny French green beans in olive oil and garlic and we've got a nice sit down dinner for less aggravation than standing in line at Boston Market. As much as I like to try new things, a simple, traditional roast chicken dinner is still one of my all time faves. Plus you can get an extra meal the next day, for example sliced chicken salad or chicken and cheese quesadillas. We also go the extra mile and make our own stock, but I'll get to that in a bit.

Stretch it out with another filler.
The two that come most quickly to mind are TVP and refried beans. Think chicken and bean burritos or a TVP – chicken combo in such recipes as chicken and dumplings. You can also stretch the meat further by using several of the strategies listed in the chicken leg quarters link above, or consider chicken veggie kabobs as a fun grilling option.

Go for the stock options.
Whenever we finish a roast chicken dinner or have de-boned chicken leg quarters in abundance, we use the bones that nobody has eaten off of and simmer them with some leftover celery ends, onion bits and a touch of sage. Then we strain out the the bone bits and let the liquid cool, which lets the fat rise to the top for easy skimming. As a hack, we ladle most of the liquid into freezable ice cube trays for later use and save enough for soup that night, since we have already got the base in the slow cooker. If doing all that (particularly on an exhausting rotisserie option day) is too much in one setting, we often start a large bag or empty container of the leg bones and body cavities for the freezer. On a day when I have the time, I do it. It really takes the pressure off that way.

Regular and seasonal sales.
In addition to all of the chicken sales, it really helps to keep an eye out for seasonal markdowns on a bird many people will be shopping for this month, turkey. Any time now, it will seriously start going for a song. It also drops in price occasionally during the summer. Stock up for the freezer and always be prepared to feed a large crowd on the cheap. While the oil free, infrared turkey fryers are more than a little cha-ching, we are keeping our eyes peeled for sales. Why? Because we see this as an opportunity to use turkey as a crowd pleaser during a time of the year many people wouldn't consider doing so: summer. If my house doesn't have to heat up with an oven or large counter roaster (my answer to not being able to dish out for a double wall oven yet in my adult life), I'm more than happy to whip up the traditional picnic sides and have people over for a back yard gathering.

Explore the world of bone-in breast.
For many folks I know, this is just unheard of. But if you are a real heavy-on-the-meat, lots of potatoes on the side person, this is a way to enjoy it while spending less.

Creative cutting.
While I have de-boned breast meat before, it is not my idea of a good time. And I know some people go the extra mile and cut up and de-bone entire fryers to save a buck. While I certainly would if I had to, I'd rather not. A couple of things I wouldn't mind incorporating? Cutting leg quarters into thighs and legs. This would allow for a light breading and oven frying of the drumsticks, which are almost always kid pleasers. It would also separate the thighs for other recipes. All with one single cut per quarter. Not too much stress and no de-boning required. Also, the butterfly technique looks like something I wouldn't mind doing from time to time, and it makes for a way shorter cooking time in the oven. Other cool ideas for butterfly-cut chicken are cutting into halves to roast separately, or tossing them on the grill for an affordable way to enjoy non-boneless chicken in the summer. The whole chickens tend to go on sale quite a bit and while the price is similar to what thighs go for, you actually end up with some lower fat breast meat out of the deal.
How to Pinch Your Pennies in a Tight Economy
With the economy being at the top of everyone’s mind, I thought it might be useful to share some penny-pinching tips that you can apply and maybe free up some spending money for the holiday season. I’m sure that my list isn’t complete, so I welcome others to add their 2 cents with other cost-saving ideas.

1. GREAT FOOD FOR ALL. You can get a large amount of food for $30. The December menu is: 32 oz. sirloin steak, 4 lb. chicken, 12 oz. shrimp, 1 lb. thin sliced ham, 15 slices fully cooked Hormel bacon, 1.5 lb. fully cooked meatballs, 3 lb. frozen vegetables, 5 lb. potato wedges, 1 lb. margarine, 12 ct. rolls or biscuits, 32 oz. whole grain rolled oats.

2. Great clothes can be found at the Goodwill Stores in Sandusky and Huron, the Salvation Army Store in Sandusky Plaza, the Thrift Shop on Market Street in Sandusky and the one inside the Erie County Senior Center. When I say there are some great “finds,” I know. I shop there. There are two consignment shops you should check out, Labels on W. Perkins Avenue -- I shop there too -- and there is a consignment shop in Vermilion. I am told they have great clothes there, as well.

3. Homestead Tax Exemption. If you are permanently and totally disabled or age 65 or older, save on your real estate taxes by applying for the Homestead Tax Exemption. You will receive a reduction on your tax bill.
4. If you are on Medicare and your gross annual income is $15,600/year for a single person or $21,000 for a married couple and your assets (this does NOT mean your house, one car, your jewelry, furniture, etc.) are less than $11,990 for a single person or $23,970 for a married couple, you qualify for “Extra Help.” This is a great benefit, and you shouldn’t pass it up. Erie County residents age 60 and older should call Serving Our Seniors office if they would like assistance applying for “Extra Help.”
5. If you heat with natural gas, shop around for the best price. If you buy your natural gas from Columbia Gas, it is selling for $1.19 per ccf. This price varies from month-to-month. If you live inside the city limits of Sandusky, you can buy if from Direct Energy for a fixed price $1.03 per ccf ($1.02 per ccf if you are age 65+). Thank you City of Sandusky! If you live outside of Sandusky, there are still good buys if you want a fixed rate (a price that doesn’t vary month-to-month during the heating season).
6. If your gross annual income if 175% of the Federal Poverty Guideline or less ($18,200 for a household of one; $24,500 for a household of two; $30,800 for a household of three, space limits me from sharing the full list, but you get the drift) you should apply for HEAP (Home Energy Assistance Program). Those who qualify will get a credit on their heating bill to help defray the cost of heating their home.
7. Many generic prescription medications are available for $4/script at most chain stores. Tell your doctor to prescribe the generic over the name brand. If you have no prescription insurance there’s the DRUG REPOSITORY at Buderer Drug Store, 433 Hancock St., Sandusky. For $7.40/script you can get up to a 90-day supply of a generic medication if they have a large supply in stock. You can get a 30-day supply of a name brand drug (if they have it in stock) for $7.40/script. These are unexpired medicines in tamper-proof packaging donated by institutional pharmacies to the DRUG REPOSITORY to help people who are without prescription insurance.

8. If you are age 60+, you can get a great meal for $2.50 at the Erie County Senior Center, 620 E. Water St., Sandusky.

9. If you have a low income, you should know about the weatherization program administered by WSOS out of Greensprings. Although the office isn’t in Erie County, they do serve Erie County. This program will inspect your home and implement a plan for improving its efficiency by insulating your home free of charge. Call 419-639-2802 for more information.

10. If you have a computer that you leave on throughout the day, turn it on only when you are using it. Computers use more electricity than you think. Don’t just take my word for it, try it.

11. If you use a credit card, consider doing most or all of your spending on a credit card, and set your money aside so you can pay it off at the end of the month. Use a card that pays you back some type of cash benefit. I use a Mastercard and pay it off each month, but every few months they send me a gift card for $25 worth of gasoline.

iPhone Tips: Managing Your iPhone Contacts


Many smart phone users end up having more contacts then they even know what to do with. The ability to jump between sections by selecting their alphabetical position helps this, but if you have seventy-five J names the entire process can get complicated. This is one of the reasons that managing the contacts in your iPhone can be one of the most important parts of customization.
You can end up separating your most used contacts for different purposes using the Favorites function. Just go ahead and begin going through your phone and begin finding the numbers you call the most. The best way to do this is by going through your recent calls and finding the most often occurring numbers. Then go to the Favorites menu and select the “add contact” option by pressing the “+” button in the upper right hand corner. Once you do you will be given your contact menu and you can go through and select one of these numbers to add to the Favorites list. Remember, manage the favorites list and do not allow it to get too long.When going through your contact list you need to know how to scroll through quickly. You can do the normal action of scrolling by moving the list up or down like a Rolodex. Another standard way is to select the letter of the alphabet that the target contact begins with. A third and lesser used way is to scroll through these contacts much faster. Press and hold down on a letter on the right hand list and then slide your finger up and down. This allows you to scroll quickly between alphabetic positions, but just puts you at the beginning of each letter list.

Try to complete each contact to limit the total number. This means adding the business, home, and cell numbers along with email addresses to each contact that you can. This will make each contact more complete and will let you end up having less. Try doing all this by syncing them with your online email accounts and your iTunes information. This can be done when syncing your calendar and other technical considerations. IF you already use Outlook then this is going to help ease the process along even more so.

You can even use applications like Google Mobile to search through your applications. The application can give you a search box just like the one you would use to search online, except it can be applied to your contacts. This can be useful for those who use Google from their iPhone constantly, but otherwise you can just try and go through it manually. It also will only go through contacts and not other parts of your phone personalization, like email or calendar.

New iPhone App Boosts to Save the Music CD


Regardless of your position on the economic stimulus plan, the war in Iraq, or the breed of the White House dog, some good decisions are actually made by the Presidents of the United States of America. We’re not talking about Bush or Obama here, no, we’re talking about PUSA, that music band from the ’90’s with such memorable hits as Lump and Peaches. So what’s a two-hit wonder like PUSA have to do with making good decisions a decade after their day in the sun? Hint: it has to do with visionary marketing that takes advantage of the iPhone platform to reinvigorate fan interest, and maybe even reinvent the the music industry. Find out why we think the new iPhone app from the Presidents of the United States of America is so special, and why the RIAA should sit up and take notice.

CD Sales - Outlook is Dismal
It’s no surprise that music sales continue to plummet as the RIAA struggles to leverage burgeoning internet technologies to distribute music to consumers. Let’s face it, the RIAA has no one to blame but themselves. They were late to the internet party, and when they finally did show up they were brandishing lawyers instead of trying make friends. It cost the music industry tens of millions to take down Napster, and seemingly, all for naught. P2P networks continue to flourish and the á la carte commerce model of iTunes has all but destroyed CD sales. Yet, CDs continue to stock the shelves of local music haunts and big retailers alike, which means the music industry really hasn’t changed as much as we had expected, at least not by now. It’s been ten years since the fall of Napster. Where is this new music business model that will turn the industry upside down?
In the last few years we have seen some new internet music business models that have shown some promise. iTunes is, of course, one major success story. The remaining contenders in this space are, as Simon Cowell would say, forgettable. Last year we watched Lala reinvent itself with an awesome music service that could threaten iTunes, but has yet to gain traction in the marketplace. Then of course, there’s the iPhone darling app, Pandora, which has a tremendous user base but really only serves to drive more sales out of iTunes. Instead of creating a new business model, Pandora has built upon the existing success of iTunes.

With the invention of digital music, and subsequently iTunes, two major shifts occurred. One, CD sales slumped because there is little reason for consumers to buy CDs instead of downloading the music and burning their own discs. The music industry has not yet figured out a way to add value to CDs in a way that is attractive to consumers. Then along came iTunes which offered an á la carte music menu to consumers to buy a song-at-a-time. This may seem like a win-win for everyone, except that it came with an unexpected side effect for the artists. Since most consumers will only buy the singles that they hear on the radio, they don’t have an opportunity to discover other songs in the artist’s repertoire, and in the end, the artists suffer.
CD Stimulus Plan from the Presidents?

Now, along comes the iPhone app from an almost forgotten band of the 90’s which could potentially pave the way for adding value to CDs while giving consumers more access to a band’s entire catalog of music. How? The iPhone app from the Presidents of the United States of America offers users unlimited access to all of the band’s music. It’s like paying $1.99 for an entire box set of albums. There are a couple of catches, though. You can’t listen to any song of your choice, instead you have to listen to a random song from the band. Also, the music streams which means you have to be connected to the network in order to listen to the music. That said, this app could be the prototype of a new marketing vehicle for bands while giving the music industry a new way to add value to CDs that sit on the shelves.

Imagine buying a CD from an artist that comes with a code to unlock an iPhone app which gives you unlimited streaming access to the entire collection of music from that artist. It’s great for the artist because the fan gets exposed to music outside of the radio spectrum. It’s great for the fans because they get more value than just the songs included on the CD. It’s also great for the music labels because it will encourage more music sales. Even better still, the iPhone app could easily include loads of additional information about the artist including tour dates and ticket sales, merchandising, messaging and alerts, games, wallpapers, and the list goes on and on.


Presumably, the PUSA app is priced at $2.99 to cover the royalty fees for the music because this app wasn’t created by the band or the label. However, if the RIAA were smart, they would create an app like this for every artist and then include it with CDs as an incentive for consumers. The labels own the music so there’s only the cost of development, which they can easily foot as a marketing expense.

We love the potential that the PUSA iPhone app has for all artists and their fans. This kind of app could eventually save the music CD by adding real value to it, but only if the RIAA sees the light. Until then, a pay-for app like PUSA’s will probably only appeal to the band’s die hard fans willing to pay $2.99 in the App Store.

Do you want to be a top Adsense Earners? Get ideas from the top 8!

Are your curious to know who some of the biggest Google Adsense earners are? I know that I was interested to know who the best are so I could check out their websites and see how I could possibly earn as much money as these people do. I realized from most of these sites that sites with user generated content usually ranked pretty highly for Google Adsense earners. It seems that these “community” type sites do tend to get a lot of traffic and we all know that traffic = money. So without any more delay here are a list of the top 8 Google Adsense earners as collected from online resources. Please note that this list might be a bit outdated but it has lots of useful information still.

1. Markus Frind - PlentyOfFish.com - $300,000 per month
If you haven’t heard of this guy yet you should check out the website plentyoffish.com. He is the person who created this free online dating website from his appartment all by himself. His website soon become one of the largest dating websites online. I have actually tried out his website myself and can see how it can be interesting and attract a lot of visitors. The graphics and layout of the website is nothing fancy at all but the functionality is all there and its fast to use.

There have been many of doubts that he wasn’t making that much money so he made those people silent by posting a picture of his paycheck on his blog. According to his blog check represented two months worth of Adsense earnings.

2. Kevin Rose - Digg.com - $250,000 per month
Kevin Rose started Digg.com in December 2004. It is a social marketing site that is mostly news, video, and pictures that are submitted by users for other users to read about and view. Basically what happens is you can signup for an account and you can submit a “news story” and other people can view it and if they like it they can “Digg it” and this boosts the rating of the post. If it gets enough Diggs it will appear on the Frontpage of the site and will get tons of traffic. Digg has both Google Adsense ads and Federated Media ads. It is estimated that he earns roughly $250k a month from Adsense alone.

3. Jeremy Schoemaker - $140,000 per month
ShoeMoney is considered to be one of the greatest Internet Marketers out there. He is very good with search engines and knows how to setup his sites to get optimal traffic to them. In one of his best months with Google Adsense ShoeMoney earned $132,994.97. You can imagine it was probably pretty difficult for him to cash a check of that size!

Unlike most of the other Google advertisers ShoeMoney makes his money from hundreds of sites and thousands of domains.

4. Jason Calacanis - Weblogs, Inc. - $120,000 per month
Jason Calacanis is the creator of Weblogs. Weblogs is a network of blogs and it was apparently making roughly $4,000 a day from Google Adsense! He eventually sold the company to AOL for a reported $25 million. He also announced his retirement from blogging earlier this year (July 2008). He is now focusing on his email campaigns instead.

5. David Miles Jr. & Kato Leonard - FreeWebLayouts.net- $100,000 per month
According to a Washington Post article these 20 year old’s claim to be making $100,000 a month from their site FreeWebLayouts.net which offers free Myspace templates. That is pretty impressive for a couple of young guys that are offering free Myspace templates!

6. Tim Carter - AskTheBuilder.com - $30,000 per month
Tim Carter is a licensed master plumber and carpenter with his own radio show. He started his website up in 1995 with his primary focus to cater to an avid following of fellow builders on the site. In April 2004, Carter learned about Adsense for content sites and he put it on his site. With minimal effort and time he optimized his website and his Adsense earnings grew from $1,500 to $7,500.

There was a Google case study done on Tim Carters earnings with Google Adsense. You should definately read it by clicking HERE. Read the results section because it gives a bunch of helpful tips on how he increased his revenue with Google Adsense.

7. Joel Comm - e-book - $24,000 per month
Joel Comm is a get rich quick guru. He wrote an e-book, What Google Never Told You About Making Money with Adsense. With his e-book and his website he earned $23,458.46 between Nov 2005 and Dec 2005. Check out his Google account stats here.

8. Shawn Hogan - DigitalPoint.com - $10,000 per month
Shawn Hogan is the creator of the forum DigitalPoint. This forum is a very usual forum with lots of information about: Search Engines, Marketing, Business, Design & Development, and Products & Tools. In a New York Times article it stated that he was making roughly $10k a month with Google Adsense.

The members of his forum speculate he is now making around double of what he was making in 2005 when this report was published in the New York Times.

So there you have it, the Top 8 Google Adsense earners. This list might be slighty out of date and there could be some new people in this list but this is the list I was able to pull from collecting information on the net.

Top 6 Link Exchange Tips

In order to achieve top 10 ranking in Google Yahoo and MSN you need to properly optimize your website for a specific keywords related to your site topic. If you optimize for wrong keywords, you are unlikely to see any results.
There are many software’s available to help you achieve search engine optimized (SEO) pages. XSitePro software will enable you to pinpoint any issues with on-page optimization and will guide you to correct these problems in step by step manner.
Link exchange or off page optimization plays a huge role getting higher search engine rankings. Here are top 6 tips for managing effective link exchange campaign.
1. Use a link exchange management script for managing link partners. A link exchange script will save you time and efforts to effectively manage link partners. Webmaster would like to exchange links with your site if you have link exchange script installed on your site. Make sure you link to link partner page from your home page.
2. Try to achieve PR2 (page rank) to PR3 with your link partner section to attract authority websites to link to your website. Use article submission with link back to your site to get one way links back to your website and improve your page rank.
A) You can submit articles to 450 article directories using Article Post Robot.
B) Use Link Directory Submitter Software to submit to high PR directories.
3. Once your website has achieved PR2 to PR3 then you can find authority websites with high search engine rankings similar to your website theme for link exchange. Never exchange links with non-relevant websites and link farms. The search engines will lower your ranking if your site is linking with link farms. 1 relevant link is better than having 10 non-relevant sites linking to your site.
