Money Tip: Do Get This Creative With Saving Tricks

SavvySugar — Mon, 28 Jul 2008 09:30:50 -0700

While chatting with a girlfriend over a leisurely al fresco lunch this weekend, she told me about a friend of hers who managed to pay for an entire Fiji honeymoon by getting creative with her saving. During the year leading up to their wedding, she and her fiancé saved all of their empty bottles and would periodically exchange them at the recycling center for cash. Every cent of those proceeds went into their honeymoon fund, and when all was said and done they had enough to pay for their romantic island getaway.

This saving solution isn't for everyone, especially those who don't go through a lot of bottled beverages, but it does suggest there are little saving tricks in all of our lives just waiting to be discovered.

The Honeymoon's Over: How to Organize Your New Couple's Closet

FabSugar — Fri, 18 Jul 2008 15:00:22 -0700

If you're a traditional gal, chances are you won't move in with your husband-to-be until he is, well, your husband. Sorry to burst your love bubble, but living together means sharing a closet — gasp! For any gal who is overly protective of her clothes (present), this reality is downright scary. But don't reconsider your commitment now; I've got some solutions to ease your closet-sharing fears.

Since you'll probably be moving your clothes into a new closet, it's the ideal time to get rid of stuff you haven't worn in over a year. Honestly, if you haven't worn it in that long, you probably won't wear it again. Plus, even more reason to buy new stuff!
There's nothing like hanging your lovely clothes on pretty and scented hangers. Buy a bunch and you'll keep your section of the closet ultra feminine.
You can barely count how many handbags you own. It's OK — that's why buying a hanging purse organizer is useful. If your husband finds your purses lying on the floor, he won't get that you and your bags are inseparable. And if that happens, you won't be able to defend yourself when buy that new bag to have.

Does Exercising Ever Mix With Honeymoons?

FitSugar — Sun, 29 Jun 2008 03:00:00 -0700

After the long haul of planning a fabulous wedding, it is time to relax on your honeymoon. But are relaxing and exercising mutually exclusive? If you're not taking an adventure honeymoon, would you (or did you) exercise on your honeymoon? I did a lot of scuba diving, but I also did a lot of lounging on the beach. I am curious to know what you think, what you did on your honeymoon, or what you are planning or dreaming to do on your honeymoon of the future. Source

Does Exercising Ever Mix With Honeymoons?

Yes! Why not go for a run when honeymooning?

No! Where's the romance in lifting weights?

Not sure – it depends on the honeymoon destination.

Dear Poll: What's More Important? The Wedding or the Honeymoon?

DearSugar — Fri, 27 Jun 2008 08:00:00 -0700

My friend is getting married later this month in a fairly modest wedding — just over 30 people at her grandparents' home. She and her fiancé decided to take all the money they would be spending on a bigger wedding and plan an ultrafabulous honeymoon. This isn’t the first time I’ve heard a couple put their honeymoon plans before wedding celebrations, and while I can’t say whether or not it’s what I’d want for myself, I definitely see the appeal. What do you think? Is the wedding or the honeymoon more important to you? To see all of our wedding coverage, check out IDoSugar.com.Source

Dear Poll: What's More Important? The Wedding or the Honeymoon?

The wedding — You can always travel later, but an amazing wedding is once in a lifetime.

The honeymoon — A wedding is only one day, but a honeymoon is an experience.

I can’t decide between the two!

Neither — I’d rather take the money and buy a house.

Other — I'll explain

Three Things to Do Before You Leave For Vacation

SavvySugar — Fri, 27 Jun 2008 14:06:01 -0700

Packing for a long vacation takes a surprising amount of energy and having to account for several wardrobe changes can be admittedly overwhelming. Remembering the bikini that makes you feel best is a must-do but there are a few other tasks that should be on your prevacation checklist. . . . and guess what? They don't take nearly as long as thoughtfully stuffing your suitcase.

Set up automatic payment for your bills. You don't want to be greeted with late-payment fees or increased rates due to missed payments when you arrive home from your vacation. Schedule auto payments online to avoid any harmful mistakes.
Sort through your wallet. Remove any items that you won't need for your trip like your social security card or extra credit cards. Carrying everything with you means keeping track of them, and if you're a victim of tourist theft those are more cards you'll have to cancel. For happier traveling, simply place them in a secure place before you leave.
Make copies of important items. Some people prefer scanning images of their passport and credit cards and then emailing the files to themselves, but others don't feel secure having these on their computers. Whichever method you prefer, make copies of important items in case something is stolen.
