I think so.  Even though PFBlogs.org is currently tracking 601 blogs! 

But how many more bloggers can PF handle?  I mean how much can an audience take about 0% balance transfers, “OMG they just cancelled Citi Dividends card,” I have this much debt and need to pay it off, housing bubble is popping, saving, spending, don’t do this, do that, invest now!, don’t invest now!, and frugality, blah blah blah.  Everytime I’m about to buy something, I imagine Blogging Away Debt screaming giving me the nasty glare, don’t do it!!!  (Sorry Tricia, just had to pick on somebody )

The last question of the day (qotd) is today!  Hosted by JLP, the qotd is made up of a total of 23 questions.

Head on over to Get Rich Slowly and answer his question:  What does money mean to you?

It’s a great question to end the marathon…after so many questions about money, what to do with it, how to save/spend it, etc.  The question is…what does money _really_ mean to you?

Evolving my original ideas of how to use your reward points, I’ve found that Citi ThankYouNetwork offers a unique opportunity to stretch your dollar even further while helping out your fellow bloggers.  That is IF I get my Amazon.com certificates from Citi…if you haven’t read my other post on why I’m a little pissed at Citi, click here.

Redeem your points for Amazon.com gift certificates.  Why?

Absolutely…not!  I’m sorry for the swapping of sections from left to right, top to bottom, but in pursuit of finding some method to the madness, I had to. This is how I now have my site laid out:

I spent much of the day cleaning up my site.

I haven’t used this myself yet, so I can’t promise anything, but if it works, nice!  Not sure if a Frappuccino is included.  But anyway, that’s around a $4.00 value…Just print out the coupon linked below…

Starbucks Coupon (PDF File)

Good through the end of September, everyday from noon to 9pm.

And tell them to move their tip jars!!  But leave them a tip because, hey this drink is free…Although I’m still a little wary on this offer…Seems kind of expensive for Starbucks…especially a whole month…

My Home: A series about the home buying process through the eyes of a first time home buyer.

In the daily email update I receive, there were 5 houses mentioned…FOUR were price changes, and 1 had new photos added.   Lately the updates have contained maybe 1 or 2 listings, but I was kind of suprised to see 4 price changes in one update.  Keep in mind that these updates only come for areas I’ve selected, so it doesn’t represent the whole state.  That’s why four is kind of a lot for only about 5 neighborhoods on my update list.

Here are the four price changes:

I’m curious, what kind of value would you place on working from home?  Pennies?  A couple hundred?  A few thousand?  More?  Not a benefit.  Leave a comment with the specific value you’d give it…

EDIT:  Annually…I was thinking along the lines of a new offer…sorry, I should’ve been clearer.

I recently redeemed my ThankYou points.  Unfortunately, one of the problems of living in a state that is not directly connected to the continental US, is that we have funky shipping rules.  It sucks.  Anyway, I couldn’t place my order via the ThankYou website because of my shipping address, so I had to call.

Calling was fairly painless, no long wait, and I got in touch with a person after just pressing a few buttons, excluding my member number.  I place my order.  She says, “Sorry Freedumb, the Amazon Gift Certificates require additional approval from my management because they are not ‘cards’.”  Interesting.  What difference does it make?  I’d assume a paper certificate would be lighter than a card anyway.

Sorry, I was trying to get this published at 12pm HST, but ran into some delays…

As if my blogging reputation hadn’t died a long time ago…lol.  I kind of didn’t really think about the consequences of a post like this, because well, if I did I don’t think I’d ever put myself out there like that, but I can’t believe how civil the questions have been!  Seriously, great questions, and nothing really offensive.  I didn’t know what to expect.  I want to thank everyone that left their questions for me and Brownie, and even those that considered, but never posted.  Hey the thought was there, and I may have another ask me anything post in the future, and other bloggers, feel free to meme, and let me know.  I’ll link you up to this post…

This will probably be the longest post I will EVER post.  So sit back, get your popcorn, put your browser in auto-scroll mode, and enjoy!
