Calling All Penny-Pinchers for Next Month's Carnival

Yesterday saw the debut of the July All About Parenting Blog Carnival, on the theme of "Do-It-Yourself Day Camp," and now the word is out on the August event: The host site is About.com Single Parents, the theme is "Money-Saving Tips," and the rules are right here.

At the moment, it looks like my summer money-saving tip is going to be "Get your children paying jobs." But I'll probably think of something better than that by the July 27 deadline.
