Molly's September Digest is Now Available

I love Econobusters. . . and not just because I work there. I loved it even before I started working for them. I love the frugal ideas and the way that Molly tries her very best to help me save and stretch my money so that my family doesn't have to do without.

The September issue is all about emergency preparedness. With hurricane season on the rise and many other natural disasters looming, being prepared is important. If you are like me, you might ask how do I get prepared? 



Molly lays it all out for you in the September Digest. Here is what you will see in these pages:

You won’t always know when disaster is headed your way. But you can save your family from needless headaches, harm, and even hunger when you prepare NOW to survive the storm, fire, flood, or calamity that could come.
Are you equipped for an emergency?
It’s not exactly fun to think about—but it’s necessary. Does your family know what to do?
If you make provisions ahead of time, you can relax knowing that your family will have every opportunity to be cared for regardless of the unfortunate scenario.
Savor September and consider setting aside one weekend this month to focus on preparedness and to develop a plan for your family.

• Create an emergency preparedness plan that is suited for your family’s dynamics and location.
• Download your choice of crisis planning forms—prepared by the experts.
• Get your kids onboard with designing a disaster strategy—help them stay unafraid, calm, and focused during a critical situation!
