What about sharing the best or our favorite tips/ideas that we've learned from past WFMW's?  People could give credit if they remembered where they found the tip, otherwise just general credit to WFMW participants.

I would love to see a theme around "easy meal fixes" or something around meal planning.  Now that spring is here, our evenings and weekends are spent juggling the boys' sports schedules.  We have baseball, hockey, and football - practices and games.  Not only is there little time to plan, but those boys can EAT after all that activity. Would love to hear what tips other moms have.

I'd love to see a WFMW on things bought from infomercials!  I was always tempted by the PedEgg and was thrilled to see another linker to WFMW mention that as her topic for the week.

And even using the same topic, a What DOESN'T Work For Me...

Oh, these are great ideas!

Keep them coming.....

How about a "Does this Work?" edition.. similar to the backwards edition. But instead of asking "How do I...?" you'd ask something specific. For example.. I've heard that you can sharpen your scissors by cutting steel wool with them - does this work? Or,... I've been wanting to buy X brand of teeth whitening stuff... does it work?

I think it would be great to get ideas about reusing everyday items.  I love when I see ideas on how to turn a cereal box into a weaving loom for kids or things like that.  I also think most people would have something to add to a theme like this.

Thanks!

Maybe your best frugal tips? Given the economy, this would be a sure winner!

What about a "Beat the Heat" edition...or have you already done that.  It got hot here FAST and I know it's that way in TX.  Our water bill is telling me we are going to have to cut down on the slip and slide and we are not members at a pool...just thought there might be some good ideas out there.

I know we've done it before, but the Backwards WFMWs are so helpful! Not only do I get one of my own problems solved, but reading what everyone else has and the comments serves as another WFMW, just coming from the readers.

oh, yeah -- I'm with Felicity & Amber!  What infomercial stuff or Heloise Hints are great, and what Doesn't Work?!  I, for one, have learned that WD-40 does NOT polish up the shower door; therefore, I will not rub it on bug bites and risk bodily harm since I've encountered showerly harm.  Hmmm...I wonder if someone made up that helpful e-mail just to see how many gullible ones out there would try those things...
