@The Frugal Fraulein – I would say that most of this money was saved. I don't specifically move money from one account to the other, but overall I didn't increase my spending in other categories because I decreased it in others. So I'd have to say the majority of the money was actually saved.

Thanks for sharing your savings numbers with us. Did you actually put that money into a savings account or have it in hand? I am watching what I save in 2010 and whenever possible putting the cash into a jar instead of applying it elsewhere. I feel I have misused the word save by saying I saved 13.06 on groceries this week when I might not have bought some of the items if they had not been on sale or if I did not have a coupon for them. In that case did I really save any money? And if I did, what happened to the $13.06 I "saved"? For for thought for me this year.

@me in millions - I've been contacted about all of my ads and freebies. I've never reached out to anyone, other than BlogHer, which pays very little. Just keep your posts and write about interesting topics and I bet you'll be contacted. At least that's the way it happened for me :-)

Wow! Could you do a post about how you are able to make so much from your blog? How do you get people to give you free stuff to review?
