Money Saving Tips From Cool Pencil Case

What would you do with half a billion dollars?

That's not a random question folks here at Cool Pencil Case decided to ask. Tomorrow, one lucky person (or a couple of people) have the chance to win the United States' largest-ever lottery jackpot of $540 million. Still, most of us in the office came to the conclusion that even a couple of million would have us set for life. If there's one lucky winner of this insanely huge jackpot, he or she has the option of getting everything in cash for $389 million dollars!

Everyone talks about the first thing they would buy -- but does anyone talk about how they would manage all that money? We've heard some crazy lottery stories of how people completely blow millions of dollars within years, so here's a couple money saving tips from your friends from CoolPencilCase.com to consider if you're that lucky winner (or if you want to start using money wisely!).

There's always room to save

Clearly, $540 million (or even the cash option of $389 million) would not fit in our Kid's Electronic Savings Bank, but saving money will always be a great way to keep track of your money. Even if you're not a lottery winner, putting your loose change into a piggy bank can really add up!

Monitor where your money is going

Whether this weekend you'll be a jackpot winner, or just regular old you spending the last of your allowance, writing down how you're spending your money will give you a true perspective where your finances are going. Did you really need to spend half what's in your bank account on new clothes even though you knew that your phone bill was due in a couple of days? With a simple Cashbook, you can see all of your purchases at a glance. Who knows, maybe after using this you'll end up cutting back on purchases and focus more on saving!

Cool Pencil Case's Top Tips for Organizing

When Easter bunnies come out, so do the dust bunnies. That means one thing: Spring cleaning! Pencil cases are a great way to keep all of your essentials organized. Whether you're an office professional, mom, or student, here are a couple of tips from Cool Pencil Case to keep yourself organized (and save money!) throughout the whole year.

Protect Your Makeup Brushes

Yes, most people purchase a unique pencil case from CoolPencilCase.com to store school supplies. But some of these pencil cases would be great to protect other things -- like makeup brushes! The Dumpling Pencil Pouch's irregular shape would be perfect to protect the fine hairs of of makeup brushes. By keeping the brush hairs at the widest end of the pencil case, you allow extra room for the hairs to keep its shape and apply makeup in the way it was supposed to!

Keeping Your Desk Space Clutter-Free

We often lose some our most important items in a rush. Think about it -- Students shove pens and pencils into the bottom of their school bags once the school bell rings. Adults often have to wrap things up at the office to make it to an important meeting, leaving essential things behind. A great way to keep organized when you're on-the-go is to make sure that your desk space is mobile. Find a pencil case that's as on-the-go as you are. Pencil Roll cases are a great solution. Fit all of your pens, pencils, highlighters, and more in the specialized compartments. Laid flat, the design makes all of your essentials accessible. Best of all, when you're ready to go, simply roll it up and place it in your bag!

Butterfly pencil pouches are also a great alternative. Simply zip up and leave!

Compartments and Pockets Galore!

Like we stated above, compartments and pockets are extremely important. In fact, it's the very function that makes pencil cases a great organizational tool! Sure, there's a few of us that carry only pens and pencils in simple zip-up pouches, but we know there's quite a few school supply kings and queens out there who come prepared to school at all times! A pencil case with compartments is the best way to separate your school supplies by category. With specialized slots, put pens, markers, and highlighters on one side, and pencils and mechanical pencils on the other.

Some of our pencil cases, such as the Mario Pencil Pouch, are large enough to fit daily planners and cellphones. Organizing your school supplies in these compartments also protect them, which will keep your school supplies looking new for much longer. Mechanical pencils can lose their adorable designs if their surfaces are constantly being scratched by pencil case zippers, staplers, scissors, etc.

For the ultimate in compartments, choose the Automatic Pencil Box. With a push of a button, compartments pull out and open up for all of your needs.
