A Parental Control for TV ~
If you have a cable box, not only can you lock access to channels and ppv movies, but many cable companies also allow you to limit the dollar amount of ppv movies ordered. Usually the limit is 100-250 dollars per month. You can have it lowered to $0, just in case the kids get your pin number.
Reader Justine Tip: Free Car Wash ~
When it is raining hard, take your cars out on driveway for free car washes. Take a pail of water and simple soap (dishwashing liquid) and wash them with kitchen towels quickly and let the rain wash them off. No cost!
(Dawn’s note: to keep the car from loosing luster, it is best to use soap made for cars.)
