It's working out pretty well for me. She L-O-V-E-S being able to collect the tickets. It's teaching her quite a few things:
- how to save
- what chores are
- how to count her tickets
- that tickets are priveleges that can be taken away...
- It also reduces the amount of times during the day that she asks if she can watch cartoons.
Things have definitely improved. I'll let you know how it goes.

While I was at Staples, I picked up a magazine called "Get Rich At Home" . The cover story was "Home Based 100 - 100 Surefire Money-Makers to Run From Home". I thought quite a few of you would be interested in the article. Especially if your a SAHM or a Part Timer or maybe even a mom that would like to make extra money. I'm not going to list all 100 (you'll have to pick up the magazine for that) but I thought I'd point out some of the ones that I thought were pretty good:
- Special Events Videos/DVDs - get paid to make videos of special gatherings.
- Calligraphy Service/Special Invitation Marketing - get paid to address invitations
- Parties for Kids - This would be awesome for a lot of you party planning moms
- Keepsake Albums - Perfect for the scrapbooker (you can charge per page)
- Howdy Neighbor Service - Get paid by merchants to include them in your get to know the neighborhood package
- Computer Tutor
- Kidproof Homes
- 900 # Entreprenuer (this would be kind of funny)
- Child Care Center (I've thought about doing this before)
Well, the list goes on, but those were my favorite.
