One of the best ways I’ve learned to save money is to look at our necessary spending. I know this is contrary to the school of thought that you should just focus on just the extras. Cut out coffee from the coffeehouse, eat at home, take a stay at home vacation… those are all good ideas too… but looking at your necessary spending can also be a great place to cut your expenses.

When I married I not only got a great husband, but also a got to learn about how expensive eye care can be. Add a few years and 3 kids and the expenses keep rolling!

{Right before we made the jump to contacts}

My husband has worn contacts since we met and my oldest just started.  That’s when I realized I needed to get serious and find a good place to start buying them from… enter 1-800 Contacts.
