My Husband ReCharges My Batteries:)

Great title, huh?  Well, he does!

I am married to a wonderful man whom I respect in many ways.  One of the things I highly respect him for is the decisions he makes with money.  He has always been a great provider for our family, the wise decisions he makes with our budget makes me feel loved, protected, secure and cared for.

We both believe it is important to be thoughtful with all the purchases we make, big or small.
We are amazed that making the smallest changes in those decisions can make a huge difference in the long run. One way we do that is by using rechargeable batteries instead of buying regular batteries.  I know it is saving us a bunch of money.

If you don’t use batteries very often, this might not be the most economical thing for you.  But, if you have several tv/ dvd player remotes and gaming system (wii!) remotes, or a couple of  wireless mice?! (that sounds weird, but it can’t be mouses..hmm.. a wireless computer mouse or two, how’s that?)  it might be something worth thinking about.

Good Housekeeping magazine featured the Duracell pocket-size Energy Star-certified GoEasy Charger ($13.00;two AA batteries included),which works for AA and AAA rechargeables.  I think that is a pretty good deal!

    Hey, friend, I just bought some rechargable batteries for the first time. Should have done it a long time ago. Hindsight, right? Always looking for good ways to save money. That’s why I enjoy thegrocerygame.com. I like stocking up on things that way when I need something I don’t have to go out and pay full price for them. I know what I will be using and feel good saving money. Blessings!
