I guess I didn't see those tips as WAY frugal or to the bone. lol (of course, I am on my first sip of coffee too) The title of her article had me thinking she was going to share some extreme tips. I was expecting something more along the lines of making bras from old socks or stuffed toys from old underwear or something.

Interesting article but most of the stuff I already do. I agree with Sara, I thought it would be more extreme. For some though, I guess it would be pretty extreme.

Thanks for posting the link for us Amy. I do use a lot of her ideas already but a few were new to me.

Hope I didn't sound like I didn't like the article. After reading what I typed, I didn't want to come off like that. I love reading any and all articles on frugality. I just meant that her title implied something more extreme to me and I was surprised the things she considered extreme.
