Make plans to join me Monday night for our weekly Q&A!!
Many of you have requested we cover this topic again, plus it’s something that I’m currently living thru with two high school seniors.
College isn’t cheap, but if you start getting ready early your kids can have a chunk of college credit early, plus lots of savings and scholarship money!! You can’t start in 11th grade and think things will work out… honestly it’s never too early to start saving and planning for college.
Join me Monday night at 8:30 pm eastern time.
(If you have other questions off topic that is fine with me, just jump on and ask any questions you have.)
Watch right here at the top of Southern Savers or head to Facebook or youtube.

6 Ways to Download Free eBooks & Audiobooks
Hoopla
Of all the sources we’re going to look at, Hoopla offers the most variety in terms of types of digital content. You can download free ebooks, audiobooks, movies, music albums, and series of television shows. You can access titles straight from your web browser, but the Hoopla app is also available on all major streaming platforms such as iOS/Android and smart TVs.
Hoopla is not available to everyone, but don’t worry! Hoopla is offered through public libraries across the United States and Canada, and their website says that they have partnerships with over 1,500 library systems, so the chances are good that you’ll be able to access Hoopla’s content. Once you create a login and password, you’ll have to search for your local library and then enter your library card information.
You can only check out 10 titles per month, but if other people in your family have their own library cards, you can increase the number. Simply create a login for each library card. There is no waitlist to download titles as long as you haven’t used up your 10 for the month.
Hoopla offers many new titles across their categories. Here’s a quick look at a popular title in each category:
- Movies: The Hamilton: One Shot to Broadway documentary

Cheeseburger lovers! You’ve got to try these skillet Oklahoma onion smash burgers! Smash ground beef into thinly sliced onions to get a super flavorful and easy burger.
I like to use 80/20 beef (the fat from the meat gives great flavor and helps to cook the onions), but you can use the ground beef of your choice. I also slice the onions super thinly using a mandoline slicer (if you don’t have one, use a sharp knife to carefully slice the onions).
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef, 80/20
- 2 tbsp butter
- 6 hamburger buns
- salt
- pepper
- garlic powder
- 1/2 sweet onion, thinly sliced
- American cheese
Directions
- Separate the ground beef into 6 equal sections and roll them into a ball. Set aside.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Open the hamburger buns and lay them in the butter until golden and toasted. Remove from the pan (you can place in the oven to keep warm, if desired).
- Raise the heat to medium-high and place the burger balls into the pan (you may need to do this in batches depending on how big your pan is).
- Smash the burgers down as thin as possible using a burger smasher or a heavy spatula. Sprinkle the meat with salt, pepper, and garlic powder and add a large scoop of the sliced onions on top of each patty. Allow to cook for 2 minutes.
- Flip the patties (with the onions) over and season again with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Allow to cook for a couple more minutes, until the onions are golden.
- Add a slice of cheese on top of each patty, allow to melt, and then transfer to a toasted bun. Serve with burger sauces of your choice!
