Apply for the discount for Arnona online! Life on a Shoestring

 I live in Jerusalem, and I didn't think to apply for a discount on the Arnona, but everyone should check because this can add up to 1000's of NIS that you could over pay!   If you have moved recently, you can apply now, but if not, then apply before Aug 31st for the next calendar year!

The site is in Hebrew:  

https://jeronlineforms.jerusalem.muni.il/SmartDiscounts

You can apply up to Aug. 31st for the next year.  Good Luck!!

It is easy to understand it if you go through all the steps, you might get a pleasant surprise next month!!

Work Grant Help. Life on a Shoestring

 

You can apply for a Work Grant from the government now until 31/12/25 for the year 2023 and 2024.  This could be worth a half a month's salary. . .  Every little bit helps!!  I got 4100NIS when I did this last Thursday! 

 

But you have to go into the website https://www.gov.il/he/departments/topics/work_grant/govil-landing-page 

 

First you have to have a password for the Israel government. 

 

This can be time consuming to get, but if you have a credit card, a upto date Israeli passport and the ID of your employer that starts with 9 and is 9 digits, you can register. 

 

It might take time to get the password, but then the Job Grant  מענק עוהדה site  will be fast.  

The site is only in Hebrew!!  

 

If you need help, call me: Rachael Alice Orbach- LIfe Coach

She can only eat non-glutin items, so the ones that she can't eat, she wants to give away.  

The food is now in Givat Shaul, you can take for free!

They are very tasty dinners and she would love to enjoy all of them, but she can't.  If you or anyone knows of people who would like these dinners, then please contact me. She is located in Givat Shaul, Jerusalem

Shabbat Shalom!

כולל חב"ד מעביר לאמא שלי אוכל מבושל בכל יום חמישי.

היא יכולה לאכול רק פריטים שאינם מכילים גלוטין, אז את אלה שהיא לא יכולה לאכול, היא רוצה למסור.



הן ארוחות ערב טעימות מאוד והיא תשמח ליהנות מכולן, אבל היא לא יכולה. אם אתה או מישהו מכיר אנשים שירצו את הארוחות האלה, אנא צור איתי קשר. היא ממוקמת בגבעת שאול, ירושלים

The dress is made of cotton, off white, with pleats at the bottom.  http://www.begedivri.com/catalogue/Dresses.

Belt is 150cm length, 10 cm wide tapered.  
Comes with the pillbox hat. 
The normal price to buy a dress is 650NIS depending upon the exchange rate, but if you want to rent for two days, the price will be 75NIS.

Post Office Hours Givat Shaul, Jerusalem

Look it up on the Website before going!  This has been the rule of thumb for a long time, because of the Internet, we have come to rely upon company websites giving us up to date information. 

But with the Post Office, this is not so.  I looked up on the Israel Post Website the hours of my local Post office Shatner in Givat Shaul.  It said that the hours would be until 5:00pm. Taking this into consideration, I arranged my schedule to go there to buy stamps so I could send my voter registration  Vote in the US from Abroad  .  My vote is secret, I won't tell you who I am voting for!  

But when I got there I saw this sign: 

So now you won't make the same mistake as me!

Get in the habit of saving money, Life on a Shoestring

Getting in the habit of saving money takes work, but you gotta start sometime.  At then end of the day, when you come home, empty out your change purse, and sort the coins.  Big coins, like a 10NIS stay in the wallet, but smaller coins can go into your "piggy bank," well, not a pig, because I live in Israel, but a savings jar. So here is a picture of what I did today. 

The Shekel coins go in the box, and the agoura coins go to charity.  Yes, we should remember those who are less fortunate that we are.  

If you do this every day, then the money that you are not spending will grow, and also the amount of good that you can do in the world will also grow. 

I do have pictures to show you, but there is a problem with the upload pictures feature right now, so when I can figure out how to solve this problem, I'll put up the pictures. 

There is also an app that lets you surf on the Internet and earn money at the same time.  They also donate a portion to the charity of your choice.  I chose the Jerusalem Biblical Zoo!  We used to go there all the time when the kids were little.

I got paid $32.00 from this app and I have it on my phone and on my computer.
