Save Money by Being Organized

My tip concerns having more money by being organized. I worked in an office my entire life, but until I set up a file cabinet in my own home after retirement, I didn't realize how I could save money by organization!

I recently did that and found an incomplete application for real estate tax rebate from the State of Pennsylvania. I finished the paperwork and sent it in. I never expected anything to come of my work as I thought the deadline surely had passed or that I wouldn't qualify.

What a surprise to see an extra $750 in my checking account deposited from PA Dept of Revenue right before Christmas! I felt as if I'd won the lottery.

Organization pays not only through peace of mind and a nice looking environment, but literally, too!
