I received a great money-saving tip from one of my readers that I wanted to pass along to you. The email went as follows:
“Two years ago my husband and I had a bunch of Air Miles built up, but we knew we wouldn’t be using them in the near future so we used them up to buy gift cards which we then used for gifts for our brothers, grandparents, etc. I’m not sure if we got the biggest return for the miles (not sure of the rate) but what’s the point in holding onto points for a flight you may never take? Better to use them up I say.”
I will never look at a homeless person the same way again. Although in the past I had volunteered in a place where I rubbed shoulders with homeless people, I could never really fully imagine what it might be like to be homeless. But once I read this book, I was able to get a secondhand glimpse of what it is like to be homeless. Their life is far from easy, and it’s good to know that there are ways we can help them out.
