Festive Link Love Carnivality #20

August 10, 2008

I’ve been a bad blogger! I haven’t been updated as often as I would like.  It’s only going to be more spotty for the next week as we’re heading off on vacation for a few days.  We’re keeping it relatively since we just bought a car.  We’ll be driving down to Virginia Beach.  I’ve never been there before but I hear it’s fun.

Haven’t taken part in carnivals as much either.  Here were the last ones I was involved in:

You Need A Budget hosted the Carnival of Personal Fiancne # 163 - Quotable Quotes.  My article Recession Or Not - The Challenge The Fed Has Has included.

Stop The Ride hosted the ABC’s Of Money - Carnival of Money Stories #70Dealing With Financial Problems With A Loved One was included.

Can I Get Rich On A Salary hosted the Money Hacks Carnival #23 - It’s Gotta Be The ShoesGoals Are Great Motivators was included.

Now for some posts from my reader and such:

Personal Finance Bloggers Credit Card Survey by Ask Mr Credit Card.  AMCC sent out questions to a number of personal finance bloggers regarding their credit cards and use and 45 responded (including myself).  Go check out the results.

As a thank you to all of the bloggers who participated, Ask Mr Credit Card wrote a follow up which included his favorite credit card post from each of the bloggers.  Check it out - Ultimate Collection of Credit Card Posts.

I didn’t spend to much time on Virginia Beach because it was too hot for my baby. But I think you will have a terrific time.
