Welcome to the 16th Carnival of Money Hacks (Money Hacks Carnival homepage). I wanted to do a clever theme for this week’s Carnival but I’ve been feeling a little under the weather this weekend. I think I ate something bad on Thursday and my body hasn’t been normal since, so I apologize. I did read through all the submissions (there were numerous multiple submissions, so I only chose one) and have select four Editor’s Choices that I feel were the cream of the crop.
Without further ado, here’s the Carnival:
