How to Save your Money!
Method 1. Saving money
What you need: 3 jars, 3 labels and a permanent marker!
1. First with a permanent marker, write (on the labels) spend, save and share.
2. Next label each jar.
3. Keep them in your sight, but so much that you’ll take money out of the save jar to spend!
4. The share jar is meant for charity or other means of donating.
5. Use the 30, 50, 20 rule (put 30% into spending, put 50% into saving and put 20% into sharing.)
Method 2. Earning money
Here are some ways to earn money!
1. Lemonade stand, charge 50 cents per glass.
2. Wash cars, charge $2.50-$5.00
3. Pull weeds, charge $1.00-$5.00
4. Walk dogs, charge 50 cents/km
Method 3. Spending smart
5 ways to spend smart
1. Compare prices of the same item, at different stores.
2. Buy 1 high quality t-shirt for $10, instead of 3 low quality shirts for $10.
3. Do the 24-hour rule, if you see an item you want, wait and think for 24 hours if you still want it, buy
it.
4. Ask questions, do I need this chocolate bar? Will I use this chocolate bar for a long time? Is it really
worth it? Poster of Charlotte the Golden Retriever

Flavors of Power
Welcome, to the power flavors bakery choose a flavor because each
flavor gives you a different power. But a great cost comes with a power
these cupcakes are $12 each yes pretty costly. But c’mon take one off
the shelf I dare you, don’t be scared we’re all friends here “I think I’ll
choose red velvet” I say excitedly but after one bite…I can read minds!
Then I remember taking my friends to the bakery Mary chose blue velvet
and became a musical genius, Jerry chose strawberry and can make
any fruit riper faster than you can actually say “fruit” and of course Fred
chose a birthday cake flavored one and now glows in the dark (no one
ever has sleepovers with him anymore) I decided this was the best
bakery ever! But that was before we knew Fred would ruin it all by telling
everyone now every kid has a power that they keep secret from adults.
Rose can fly, Gary can become invisible and Jake can literally make
money grow on trees! Now though we need to get rid of their powers
somehow but the shopkeeper will only tell us this: plain unlike flowers
this cupcake will get rid of your powers. Weird but what does that mean
there’s thousands of flavors in that shop and like 500 different plain
flavors. How on earth are we going to be able to find that one single
cupcake…Then it hit me vanilla! Of course the most, plain flavor there is.
But how will we get everyone to eat them, I know I’ll tell them this
cupcake gives them all the possible powers. So I fed them to every kid
in the neighborhood and now no kid has any power. Hey I know what
you’re thinking, what about me? Well didn’t I just say I know what you’re
thinking?
