Happy Friday!

Today I am so excited for you. YES! I am excited for YOU!

We include a poll at the end of every Friendletter to get to know you and your goals. And based on your answers we’ve been cooking up something special. Drumroll please….

A $1,000 cash giveaway!

We’ve partnered with some of our favorite newsletter creators to give one lucky winner $1,000 cash to do whatever you want with. Treat yo’ self? Yes! Take a vacation? Do it! Pay off debt? We love it!

All you have to do is enter here and one winner will be announced on December 1st.

What’s the catch? Nothing. We won’t be selling your data or signing you up for spam, you’ll only receive newsletters from the creators participating in the giveaway and you can unsubscribe to any of them at any time (but we think you’ll like them!)

We have a few fun ones this week! First up, for our Halloween special, we did My Favorite Money Murder: Scams. We covered real 6 money scam stories from Reddit and how you can protect yourself against falling for them.

Today’s episode is sure to be one we return to again and again, Impulse Buying: What it is & How to Stop. I love that the first article we covered was actually written for MARKETERS on how to get us to buy impulsively and we tackle the tricks head-on!

Tune in wherever you get podcasts and don’t forget to leave a rating and review on Apple Podcasts and Spotify!

Jen’s picks for a stellar weekend.

✅ Watch This: My (Jen) Instagram stories on Sunday for updates on my half marathon at Disney World! I’ll be posting as many real-time vids as possible!

✅ Listen to This: My Wine & Dine Half running playlist. These are my running pump-up songs. It’s mostly Fall Out Boy.

✅ Meal Plan This: It’s comfort food season and after this race I’ll be eating ALL the pasta. Starting with this Gnocchi with Roast Chicken, Bacon, and Kale.

Tomorrow, I’ll be heading to Disney World to run 13.1 on Sunday. I’m planning to run it in 2:45 (also planning on waking up at 2:45 in the morning! 😭) To put that in perspective, that’s almost 3 hours of running for a distance that’s about a 20-minute drive.

Many people, including Jill, think I’m a little crazy. But you know what’s not crazy? Entering a giveaway to win $1,000!

Don’t dilly-dally! Stop what you’re doing and enter the giveaway. Even if you don’t want the money, every entry supports us and will allow us to do more giveaways in the future (we’re hoping to do a travel-themed giveaway if this one goes well!)

Catch ya later,
