Welcome! It looks like you're new here. Be sure to subscribe to my RSS feed so you don't miss a thing! Thanks for visiting!

Welcome to the 134th edition of the Carnival of Debt Reduction started by Mighty Bargain Hunter. This is my first time hosting a blog carnival, so I thought I’d do something fun with it. I tried to read at least part of the 92 total submissions and picked out some of the ones I liked best. Then I decided to write a little haiku about my top choices. Enjoy!

Well folks - there you have it. For anyone whose submission wasn’t written about - I’m sorry! The ones featured here weren’t necessarily the best of the best, there were just too many submissions for one round up and lets face it, no one can write 92 Haiku!
