So many of you email me and ask me what certain abbreviations mean that I post on Addicted to Saving.  If you look to the top horizontal toolbar, you will be able to see I’ve added a new category called “Abbreviations”.  I will add more abbreviations to this list as I use them!  If you see an abbreviation I have missed, please leave a comment on this post and I will add it to the list!
