I have ended up earning 500$ with all my babysitting money. I don't want to blow it all but I do want to have a good time with it. Im a teen, so i don't have bills or anything. I might want to use some on clothes, but i've already gone shopping for school. Any ideas? What should I do with ~some~ of the money, that i won't feel like its a big waste?
Please help= thnx.
remember: i am RESPONIBLE and SENSABLE and won't go and try to blow it all.

Spend about $100 shopping or something. You deserve it!
Don't force yourself to spend the money if you can't think of anything good to do with it just yet. You'll think of something eventually. The money isn't going anywhere :D

Have your parents help you open a savings account where the rates are in the 4 to 5% range and put in $300 .
Spend a $150 on your school needs (remember the yearbook and class rings)
And $50 on some good eats and maybe the theatre .
Congrats on the work & earning the $$$ !

Get a CD (Certificate of Deposit) or open a Money Market Account at the bank. That will give you the best Interest - better than just a savings account.

Chinese food!!!
Congratulations on saving what you worked hard for =)
Maybe buy something special for you and a small gift for the house that your family would like.Then you can bank the rest for when you need it.
Oh and word of advice; if you are going to use caps for words (responsible and sensible) spell them correctly =)

Save about 90% of it and spend the rest.
