I do apologize if you don’t see your post here – either it wasn’t a personal money story that fit the guidelines we hosts get or it came in after 5pm EST and was forwarded to the next host. Please submit your posts to the next edition of Carnival of Money Stories using the carnival submission form. The host next week will be Money Beagle.
*I found these tips at Ezine Articles.

Thanks so much for including my post in the carnival. Great job on hosting. I love all of the weight loss tips. I got a few chuckles with some of them. I think I need to post these on my fridge as reminders for the year round.
Love the weight loss tips. Now: if I can only find a toothpick that will catch and kill some pumpkin pie. Thanks for hosting a fun carnival!
Many thank’s for putting my post up there! I really love your weight loss tips, makes it funny and interesting. Keep it up!
I’m good with the “food has no calories if no one sees you eat it.” I’d be hiding in a closet with the fridge close by.
Love the jokes! Thanks again for a great reading list.
w00t! Thanks so much for the editor’s pick!
Love the diet plan. Especially like the tree-in-the-forest theory. It must be true!
Thanks for including my article on my daughter’s allowance!
Thank you for making me an Editor’s Pick!!!
I’m glad you all enjoyed the funny tips! My favorite was “Only eat food that you can catch & kill with a toothpick”. I think the “catch & kill” part is what really made me giggle…
