I just never know what I'll get. Recently I hit the jackpot when I read the message from Anna, who shared a unique way to clean up the house in a big hurry. I laughed until my sides hurt, visualizing her tip reduced to a cartoon, and then I promptly headed to my garden shed to make sure I'd be able to follow her lead. For sure, our first tip today is wor- thy of receiving the Tip of the Month award! Congratulations, Anna, and I hope you enjoy your prize: a one-year Debt-Proof Liv- ing Online membership (http://www.DebtProofLiving.com ). TIP OF THE MONTH. As a single mom of three boys, I always am pressed for time. So I use my electric leaf blower on low as a housekeeping device. Instead of sweeping my kitchen and mud- room, I use the blower to get things out through the garage or the back door. You'd be surprised at the dust and cereal that come out from under the stove and refrigerator, where the broom and vacuum cleaner can't reach! -- Anna, e-mail WORKING WONDER. I am a workingwoman who would prefer to be retired. I assess my spending according to how many hours I would have to work to pay for what it is that I want to buy. I use my actual take-home pay to determine this. If I make $25 an hour, I deduct 12 percent for payroll taxes, 15 percent for income taxes and 7 per- cent for state and local taxes to find that I am only bringing home approximately $17.50 an hour. Then I look at the price of the item I want to buy and consid- er how many hours I would have to work to make the money that I need to pay for it. Often that is enough to make me rethink whether or not I really want or need something. -- Anna, e- mail Mary Hunt Everyday Cheapskate PRACTICAL PRINTING. My frugal husband found that some- times printer ink cartridges seem to be out of ink when they only need a little attention. If we remove a dry ink cartridge, shake it and then wipe it off with a soft cloth, we can get many more printing jobs out of what seemed to be a finished car- tridge. I only wish I had all the car- tridges that I threw out before we The Boobie Goddess Society will host its second annual barbecue, raffle and silent auction on June 5 at the Senior Citizens Hall in Redding to raise funds in support of the battle against breast cancer.

I look forward to reading "Everyday Cheapskate" daily. Thanks for providing useful infor- mation in this format. I read a recent reader tip on keeping cats out of the yard by using mothballs. My sister-in-law used mothballs in her flowerbeds to keep the cats out of them. The mothballs worked, but they also killed all of the neighbors' cats! Mothballs are extremely toxic to ani- mals and children. In fact, in our area, mothballs are considered hazardous waste, and they can't be placed in our normal trash bins. Please tell your read- ers not to use this method for pest control, as it is harmful! -- Martha H., Ohio Thanks, Martha. You just did. Would you like to send a tip to Mary? You can e-mail her at mary@everydaycheapskate.com, or write to Everyday Cheapskate, P.O. Box 2135, Paramount, CA 90723. Include your first and last name and state.
