This week we were included on three carnivals and festivals. Another crazy week here on the NtJS ranch. Fear not ReUse It! fans, that camera we were mulling over is on order, and a new ReUse It! post should be up next week.

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. Thanks for stopping by and be sure to check out our NtJS Cafepress shop!

On with the round up...


Green It! Carnival: Is back and hosted by Green Me. It may not mean anything, but our post is listed first. Could be nothing. Just sayin'.

• Your Finish Rich Plan is plugging air leaks - something I need to address as well.

Festival of Frugality: Is up at Value For Your Life and is full of gratitude. Now show a little gratitude and we'll pour you a drink.

• FruGal (love that name) shows her not-so frugal bits.
• Our Fourpence Worth had the A/C go out and chose not to fix it! 10 days down.
  

Carnival of Money Stories: Funny About Money hosts the double trouble edition this week as last weeks was put on ice. Despite not earning a little red heart, we think you'll enjoy our post on a want that became a need. Some other enjoyable posts:

• SimplyForties pays some Stupid Tax. We all have at some time, but this one is pretty rough.
• The Happy Rock made the tough choice of selling a van that they love. Dump the debt and sacrifice now to win later.
