Carnivals / Festivals
Last week we were completely absent from the Carnival / Festival circuit with the exception of hosting the Carnival of Debt Reduction - Gazelle Intense Edition. This week we are back with a vengeance and have been included on five carnivals and festivals.
We are pleased to welcome all new readers, as well as new carnivals to Not the Jet Set. To find out more about us, click here. We are a personal finance blog focused on frugality, stewardship, and current events, while also telling our story as a family and the personal finance decisions we have made.

The Carnival of Debt Reduction is up at American Consumer News with the Secret to Life Edition.
