Saver in the City’s five for Friday

Welcome to another edition of Saver in the City’s five for Friday! In no particular order, here are the posts that caught my eye this week:

Even if it’s not done by The Trump in front of millions of television viewers, getting fired can be a horribly stressful experience. You may not be able to save your job, but at least you can prepare for the worst with Girls Just Want to Have Funds’ post on what to do if you’re fired. 

 

 
Home prices may be going down, but so are rents as savvy tenants renegotiate. If an apartment move is in your future, be sure to read Broke Grad Student’s post about the 5 things to do before moving into a new apartment. 

 

 

Smart Easy Money asks the question, Where do you draw the line? This candid and oh-so-true post addresses our tendency to lower our standards of what we’ll accept when times are tough. 

 

 

 
Card? Check. Champagne? Check. Dinner Reservation? Check. Just when you thought you had everything in place for Valentine’s Day, you remember the after dinner accoutrements. Don’t worry, there’s still tonight to shop but first be sure to read The Budget Babe’s post about the best lingerie on a budget. 

 

 
I once killed a man. Okay, I’m lying…no really, I was lying to prove a point, I swear!! It’s hard to tell online when someone isn’t telling the truth, but thanks to The Wisdom Journal’s 15 signs you’re lying to me, you might be able to figure it out next time somebody is fibbing.

 

 All I can say is TGIF! I’m headed to Washington D.C. for the weekend with my mom so I likely won’t post on Monday, but stay tuned on Tuesday for my recap of fun and free (or at least cheap) activities in our nation’s capital. Have a great weekend!
