Sometimes it can be overwhelming to even think about finances, let alone setting up a plan to actually improve them. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has a great pamphlet (20 pages long) that makes finances easy to think about and to change.
It's called One For the Money and you can download it here or here, or pick it up for free at any one of these locations.
Basically it goes over proper money management, developing self-discipline (includes a debt elimination calendar), using a budget, teaching family members (including young children) the importance of work and how to make good decisions, and a few other valuable lessons. It is straight forward and easy to understand, and if finances seem overwhelming it is definitely a great resource to start you off on the right foot.

I know that I have this around the house somewhere, but it is a good reminder. Thanks!
I was reading a past issues of Reader's Digest and came across this article that I thought was very good. It's the same thing we have been hearing for years, but it was refreshing to read it again. http://www.rd.com/advice-and-know-how/qa-with-jean-chatzky-fortune-teller/article118962.html
Pretty much it's be grateful, save, and plan for the future.
Since Borax is one of the ingredients in flubber I already have the huge box. What a great idea. Where do you buy the stuff you grate? I'm going to try it.
Liz, you can buy the Fel Naptha at Macey's. From what I've heard it's one of the only places here that sells it, I don't know about other areas.
