As we head into the second half of August I’m sure if you’re a parent you’ve already started the back-to-school shopping madness. It can be stressful on many levels, but for a lot of families it’s hard financially too
That’s why this creative idea one couple in Cleveland came up with is so great. About six years ago they opened a store called 2nd Semester Consignment Shop. The idea was to sell school supplies at a discount for families in the area so every kid has what they need for the school year. It’s been such a big hit that they also now offer free tutors!
What a great idea. People should start this in towns everywhere, like here in Connecticut.

Friday nights we always get sushi in our family. Part of our weekly tradition. One of my favorite things to do is mix the wasabi in with the soy sauce. Yum… so good. But apparently at most places and stores it’s not REAL wasabi at all.
A lot of times they use horseradish instead because the real wasabi is super expensive and actually pretty mild. I need that heat so I’m totally fine with whatever the fake stuff these places are serving.

Rick’s job has instructed him that they will be returning to the office next month. He was hired amid the pandemic, so he’s never had to commute the 20 miles. His wife, Shelby, says he should ask about gas stipends to cover the commuting costs. He’s afraid to rock the boat since it’ll be his first time in the offices and face to face with co-workers. Plus, he knew when he took the job that a return to the building was in the cards. Does it hurt to ask? (36:13)

If you’re a parent you’ve probably had that proud mom or proud dad moment. When your kids win a big game, graduate, or accomplish something they’re passionate about. You immediately want to do everything you can to celebrate them.
For this one mom in Camden, New Jersey it was to buy a billboard ad showing people driving by that her daughter graduated from med school and is now a doctor! Big one. So makes sense. The billboard cost her about $1,250. She says it also has the added benefit of inspiring other young people in the area. Especially since Camden historically is one of the poorest cities in America.
