No thinking involved here! We have just been through a very destructive flood here in Lewis County. We've been all over the news this past week as the freeway here has been shut down for days and just reopened today. My son has a family and due to the flooding has been off work this week, they couldn't get out to work. In the midst of all of this their furnace went out and they had no heat with two little kids in the house. It has now cost them 436.00 to have their furnace fixed and he is without income for three days this week. I've been delivering supplies to people who were hit the hardest and there are many needs here that have not been met for these people. I would use the money from this to give 1/2 to my son, and the rest to help someone else get furniture or something they may need. There is so much need, it won't go far, but anything will help here! Thank you!
I lost my job as a stylist less than a month before Christmas. I love this time of year because its also my birthday! Unfortunately I felt I had nothing to celebrate. Losing a job is never a good feeling, but something about it this time made me feel that it could be okay. After spending 24 hours being upset, (that was long enough) and realizing unemployment isnt a guarantee, I came across the opportunity to go into business for myself. With the support of my clients, friends, family and even my ex-boyfriend, I went for it! Money is tight now since every dime is going into startup cost. Holiday stress, business stress and financial stress...whew! The best I can do right now is to retail items I have in my inventory and use that money on my family's gifts. As I try to stay strong during this time, $400 from NationalPayDay would be a great way to ease my mind (at least thru January). But I must say, being independant is the best Christmas gift I could ever give myself and $400 would be the icing on the birthday cake!
This summer my husband hurt his back, badly. He has been on disability since July with no clear back to work date. I have a good job that at least pays us well, but with disability only paying 2/3 of my husbands check things are a little tight this christmas. We have some gifts to buy for other people and wanted to get them nice but not expensive gifts. we shopped early and look around a lot. by being aware of what the general price is on things you can compare at sales to see if it's a deal. discount book stores and big lots saved us, and now we have enough money to treat ourselves to something nice.
THIS HAS BEEN A HARD YEAR FOR ME AND MY SON, A NATIONAL PAYDAY LOAN WILL HEPL ME GET A VERY NICE PRESENT FOR HIM, HE IS A VERY GOOD KID, BUT RIGHT NOW I'M GOING THRU A VERY ROUGH TIME AND I DON'T EVEN THINK I WILL BE ABLE TO GET HIM A GIFT AT ALL.
HE IS THE LOVE OF MY LIFE AND I IT WILL MAKE ME VERY HAPPY IF HE CAN HAVE A HAPPY CHRITSMAS.
OUR BEST MONEY SAVING GIFT-GIVING IDEA IS THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO BUY THE MOST EXPENSIVE THING THERE IS. WE SHOP WALMART AND THE DOLLAR STORE WE ALSO HAVE THINGS THAT WE BOUGHT LAST YEAR THAT WERE ON SALE AFTER CHRISTMAS. DO YOUR SHOPPING AROUND SEPTEMBER WHEN THINGS ARE NOT SO CRAZY. WE HAVE 5 CHILDREN WE HAVE TO SHOP FOR, AND ITS NOT EASY AT ALL. OUR FAMILY HAS HAD TO SCAFRICE ALOT THIS YEAR AND WE JUST DON'T REALLY HAVE ALOT TO SPEND BUT WE GIVE THEM THE BEST WE CAN. I THINK A PAYDAY LOAN WOULD HAVE HELPED US GIVE THESE KIDS A LITTLE MORE THIS YEAR. A PAYDAY LOAN WOULD GIVE THESE KIDS A CHRISTMAS THAT THEY BELIEVE IN. I AM NOT MUCH FOR CHRISTMAS THIS YEAR I HAVE RECENTLY LOST MY LITTLE BROTHER AND ALMOST MY DAUGHTER IN A CAR ACCIDENT. MY BROTHER PASSED AWAY ON DECEMEBER 9TH 2006 AND WAS BURIED ON OUR DAUGHTERS BIRTHDAY. IT WAS THE ONLY BROTHER I HAD. SO THIS YEAR WE ARE TRYING TO GIVE THE BEST GIFT THERE IS LOVE AND HOPE FOR OUR CHILDREN, AND IT DOESN'T COST A THING. MERRY CHRISMAS AND THANK YOU NATIONAL PAYDAY LOAN
