From the Editors

June 11, 2008

Hail! Another Of Recent Note is upon us, and we’re inviting you to take part. This month’s assignment is:

“Ways We’re Saving Money”

The economy is doomed, the price of everything is going up: So how are you preparing? Maybe you’re brownbagging your lunches, cutting back on the air conditioning, replacing all your light bulbs with the energy-saving kind? Maybe it’s boxed wine instead of bottled?

Send in your strategies, 75-150 words, to bridgetfitz@gmail.com by Monday, June 23, at 6 p.m. Eastern Apocalyptic Time. Please include a link to your web site or PayPal donation page or wherever it is you want people to go when they click on your name.
