Savvy Cents Review & Giveaway (Two Winners)

In these hard economic time, its important to save money any way you can.One great way to do this, is to organize your spending money. Its not always easy to keep track of what money goes where. By the end of any given week, you can spend several hundred dollars and have no idea what you bought. But now, thanks to Savvycents, you can keep everything organized with their functional wallets that come in in black, red and pink. 


Savvycents are fun and fashionable wallets with multiple slots as well as stickers you can use to label them. You can have a section for grocery money , one for restaurants, and one for entertainment to name just a few. You can also use it to take your spending money and sort it out to make sure you don't spend too much on any one thing. You put so much in  each section and  when its gone, that's it.  There are also spots for gift cards, credit cards, and your driver's license.  There's even a spot for your check book.   I also thought the wallet was perfect for organizing my coupons. I know when I go shopping with coupons I save at least $50. But its so hard to keep them organized. I usually wind up dropping coupons all over the floor or not being able to find what I'm looking for. With Savvycents I have lots of room for everything.

Wouldn't you just love to have a Savvycents wallet of your own? Two lucky winners will each receive a wallet in either black or pink. To enter, visit Savvycents and tell me something you learned.

I learned that Savvycents was formed after the inventor--Melinda Claudpierre--read a book about becoming debt-free and following the cash envelope system of budgeting. The envelope system was frustrating to her so she created the Savvycents wallet!
