Yesterday I came home to a $44 check from my auto insurance company, listed as a dividend for my 2002 Volvo. Now I just got one a few weeks ago for my husband's 85 Saab 900 ($25.20).

Making me think...hey we had 3 other cars insured through them in the last year (93 Ford Explorer, 98 Saab 900 Turbo, 87 Suzuki Samurai)-- are there more dividends in my future?

Either way, that's $44 more toward my tuition. Add that to the $115.38 that I've got saved up:

115.38
+44.00
------
159.38 out of $480 needed by September 17.

WOOHOO!

I sold another textbook!

I woke up this morning to an email from half.com, thinking it was like a feedback alert from my last sale or something. Nope. Another textbook out the door, and $14 for my college fund.
