Hello debt fighters, frugal friends, and money makers!
I’m going to keep this short and sweet. As I continue to grow Dear Debt, I think it’s really important to hear from you, the readers. If you’re really digging something, I’d like to know. Conversely, if something I’m doing just isn’t working, I’d like to know that as well.
You can take this simple, anonymous 3 question survey.
https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/HS2P6YH
If you’d rather not take the survey, feel free to comment, or drop me a line at deardebt{at}gmail.com.
Also, I wanted to share this awesome giveaway from my buddy Brent at VOSA. He’s giving away 10 copies of the popular budgeting software, YNAB (You Need a Budget). Enter here.
Lastly, for my American readers, what will you be up to for Labor Day weekend? I’ll actually be laboring for most of the weekend, but will take most of Monday off. I’m saving some time to go camping next week with some friends. Can you believe I haven’t gone camping in over 10 years? I’m such an urbanite. I’m actually scared about going without technology for two whole days, but I know it will be rejuvenating and fun!
I wish you all a safe, healthy, fun weekend!

Have fun camping!!! I’ll be celebrating the Labor Day weekend with lots of visiting and lots of blog-related tasks!
Fun times! I always like to “catch up” during holiday weekends and have some fun and rest. Have a great weekend, Kara!
Thanks for sharing my big giveaway!
I spent all of last week in a tent camping and had some of the best sleeps of my life. This coming from an EXCELLENT sleeper in general. There’s something about being out under the stars that I find peaceful.
Enjoy your trip and try not to labor too much this weekend!
Thanks again!
You’re welcome. Glad to help. I’m excited to unplug a bit.
Hope you enjoy your Monday off! I too plan on working most of the weekend. 🙁 But I love the $$ 🙂
I love the $ too 🙂 Take some time for yourself, if you can!
Oh I’m so bad with surveys. I love everything you’ve been doing, really. You have some great series going on, and I wouldn’t mind hearing more about your experiences with freelancing! You should do a camping recap, too =). Have a great weekend!
Thanks for the feedback, Erin. Yes, I will have an overview of my first month as a freelancer coming soon! You’re right, I should do a camping one, too. I need to bring my camera – I’m so bad at taking pictures (I prefer to be in the moment). Have a great weekend and get some rest.
Survey says! Uh, you’ll have to go read it. 🙂 It’s all good. Our weekend plans have changed so I hope to be going away next weekend too. Enjoy your camping, I hope the weather is good. Camping in good weather is awesome… in bad weather, it’s like work.
Thanks so much for taking the survey, Deb. You rock! I hope whatever your weekend plans are, you have fun!
Have fun camping! I went camping for my first time ever earlier this year and loved it. Now I can’t stop!
Nice! I think the last time I went camping, I was 16?!
Camping is the perfect way to disconnect. Have a great weekend!
You too, Lauren! I’ll report back next week when I’m done camping. Should be an experience.
I’ll do the survey after this. I would LOVE to be away from technology for two days. I’m not “working” this weekend but I am on job searching, resume stuff, blog stuff. Don’t labor too hard! 🙂
Thanks a bunch! You are working — working towards a new, better life! I kind of selfishly want you to move to Portland. 🙂
Survey done my friend! Enjoy your time away with friends – hustling is good but we all need a break every now and then to avoid a complete meltdown/burnout 🙂
Thanks so much! I really appreciate it. We all need a break from time to time — burnout is real!
I LOVE camping!!! You won’t miss technology and will feel super refreshed when you get back. Have fun 🙂
I’m excited to hit the reset button!
Have fun camping! We’re hiking this weekend and just generally enjoying time together. Always nice to have an extra day off!
Will do! I’m camping later this week — should be interesting. Hope you had a nice day off. 🙂
I haven’t gone camping in at least 15 years! Seems crazy. I guess it’s something I did as a kid with my family. Maybe when I have kids, I’ll do it again. Happy Labor Day!
Same! I used to go as a kid, too.
