Carnivals This Week

The Buck List participated in two carnivals this week. The Make It From Scratch! Carnival is worth a visit for some craft ideas and recipes.

The 30th Carnival of Making Real Money features all personal finance articles this time. Thanks to the hosts for including my posts.


During the last month or two there have been a few carnivals I have submitted posts to that have not published anything. They did not occur at all. All of them have then signed up to host another carnival, despite not living up to their previous commitment. If my post is not included in any given carnival that’s fine, but why waste everyone’s time with offering phantom carnivals that never occur?

It is a tiny irritation, hardly worth writing about, but I wonder why it happens.
