One heading I chose was 30 Days 30 Ways To Save: The Bedfan. We spend a lot of money each year on air conditioning. My dad always cranks up the air at night. Instead he could put the bedfan on the bottom of his bed. Then since he likes to be cold and my mom doesn’t they could set it at my dads feet or in between them if they choose. I learned that there is a cheap way to keep cool during the night. The only thing that would make it better is if it was cheaper to buy.
The other heading I chose was 30 Days 30 Ways to Save: Slash your grocery bill. I chose this because our grocery bill is about 150 dollars a week or more. by getting organic foods and the off-brand chips and granola bars we can save a ton of money. Even my dad will save money grocery shopping (he likes buying the most expensive food because he thinks it tastes better = ] ) by simply looking for the cheaper option.

- a.It has a 13.7-gallon tank.
b. This car gets about 45 mpg. - a. Sams Club has the cheapest gas at 2.09
b. 2.09 x 13.7=$23.66
c. 13.7 x 45= 616.5
Viola!
Only $23.66 to fill up my tank!!
Then I can go 616.5 miles with $23.66.
