Make Your Own Stickers

Monday May 26, 2008
An entry from the Frugal Living Dictionary:

Sticker shock - what you suffer when you go to buy your kids a pack of stickers and see the price

$4 for a pack of stickers? Okay, clearly the person responsible for pricing stickers isn't a parent because no parent would put that kind of price on something that's going to last five minutes – tops – in the hands of a kindergartener. Am I right?

If you're not keen on the idea of getting a second job just to keep your kids in stickers, try making your own instead. You can make hundreds for around a quarter, and your kids can even help.
