HOW I SAVED $5728 IN 2009 BY DONATING $10 A MONTH TO FREEREPUBLIC!

Posted on Wednesday, January 27, 2010 4:52:13 PM by Recovering Ex-hippie

Last night I figured out how much money last year I SAVED by being a Freeper and what I got out of Freerepublic! AMAZING....Here is the breakdown:

Money I saved...

1. Not buying the local newspaper--$125.

2. No subscriptions to "News" magazines--$110.

3. Taking my homemade lunches, thanks to Granny's Frugal Cooking Thread--$260.

4. Mercury Light bulb Professional Cleaning ( cause Freeprs warned me!)I didn't need cause I didn't buy those dumb bulbs---$260.

5. Investment Newsletter I didn't have to order cause I get so much info here--$189.

6. Making my own Greeting cards using pics and cartoons on Freep ("Obvious Man" cartoon and "oh no, not this s...again!" pic) I saved $45.

7. Computer advice found here worth at least $165.

8. Dog care advice worth $60.

9. Money saved by not needing to take college classes on economics, history, politcs,geography and religion because of all the reference materials on Freep...$3,040.

10. All the crap I didn't buy because I was warned here..(no snuggies!)I saved easily--$465.

11. I saved a lot on movies and going out for entertainment with Live Action Freeps outdoors and all the Live Threads here..."24"; Football threads and of course the Obozo-Totus Comedy Shows--$1,009!

That's the monetary savings!

But more than that I got:

* Encouragement, inspiration and motivation during dark political times.

* Spiritual Uplifting

* A sense of renewed patriotism and true camraderie.

FREEREPUBLIC----PRICELESS !

Good thing I DVRd Dr Who... Gives me something else to watch

[mewzilla]

Barry's performance tonight puts me in mind of Shakespeare...

Madness in great ones must not unwatch'd go.

[St_Thomas_Aquinas]

“We can’t wage a perpetual campaign...” His entire presidency so far has been a perpetual campaign!

Yes! I heard that and couldn't believe it. This guy is either a pathological liar, or completely divorced from reality.

[Liberty Valance]

This is a campaign speech.

[kcvl]

SHOVE IT, OBAMA, YOU LYING PIECE OF CRAP!!!

[ATOMIC_PUNK]

Why hasn’t Osama Bin laden been caught?

Because the lincoln bedroom is off limits after OBL moved in !

[BagCamAddict]

He’s not even talking to the American People, he’s talking to the room. It’s a very bizarre “State of the Union” speech.... Once again, it’s a campaign speech.

[jackibutterfly]

Phew! HOW much longer is this thing going to go on???

[swpa_mom]

I am in my mid 50’s. This is by far............THE worst the absolute worst State of the Union Speech I’ve seen.

We have men and women fighting two wars and we’re watching a President smirk. How totally unprofessional.

[flamberge]

Obama doubles down and “Health Care Reform” rises from the dead - again.

Is there no way to put a spike in the heart of this beast?

[Borax Queen]

Definitely, LOL about the tax cheat!!

[MtHollyMolly]

OMG...move your money NOW...the stock market is definitely going to tank tomorrow.

[dragnet2]

Do these government freaks realize how distracting it is watching the two bozo’s on both sides of chucko, laughing and winking at their friends, with their cocky arrogant, celebrity like behavior?

[Typical_Whitey]

Ding, Ding, Ding, It is the tactic of totalitarians and dictators. It is pure projection on the part of our Narcissist in Chief.

Hopefully the American People recognize the Danger and toss them out on their rear ends.
