We bought a new house! (and sold our house fast)

by doitonadimeblog Filed Under: Money Saving, Organization

We bought a new house similar to these Okanagan Valley Homes! In my New House and Moving series I’ll be sharing how we sold our home quickly (in just three days), tips for moving on a budget, how to move into a new home, and how to get organized quickly using systems that work with your family’s needs.

It’s usually very tricky for people to buy and sell houses so I know that a lot of you will be able to get a lot of help from our experience so that’s why I wanted to share it with you. It was a pretty stressful process but I love our new house. I had been looking at some houses for sale columbia il but we needed to find a house in a different location for a few different reasons. I finally found the perfect house in the perfect location and we decided to put an offer in! Luckily it got accepted!!!

Surprisingly, one of the most difficult parts of the process is actually arranging for a moving company to move our stuff out! High-quality moving companies like Big T Moving & Delivery are booked for months in advance so it can be tricky getting someone who can work on such short notice if you don’t contact them quickly.

Another important thing to remember is that you need to budget for every little thing to avoid over spending. Remember to take into account things like the realtor’s fee or the moving company price in order to keep on budget, Anyway, I’m giving too much away!

I hope you enjoy this video and I can’t wait to share this next adventure with you!

I NEVER pay retail for these three things…

by doitonadimeblog Filed Under: Decor & Furniture, Money Saving, Organization

I’m often told, “Your Goodwill is so much better than mine.  I never find half the stuff you do, Kathryn.”  And while I’ve gotten lucky a few times, there are three main categories of items that you can find at virtually ANY thrift store or garage sale to organize and decorate your home.  You don’t need to find a special store or have crazy thrift-store luck.  Here are some quick ideas to get you inspired and help you shop thrift like a pro.
