It certainly does Princess Lenora. I cut up and paid off all my credit cards years ago, thank God! I don't do without the essentials of ife but I have learned to shop better and wiser. I also learned that I use to be an instinct buyer, not what I needed but what I (thought) I had to have. It is constantly amazing to me what I can actually do without and not miss one bit...You can really save by simply usuing less soap in the dish water, and washing machine. Less shampoo, only a few drops are needed. Same with toothpaste, a little goes a long way. Just my two cents...
