    You could always go to a post you've already made and click the search button at the bottom of your post. That will take you to the posts you have already made.

    For instance, I just clicked on the search at the bottom of your post, and this is what I got: http://www.frugalvillage.com/forums/...earchid=398868

    Another way to do it is "view new posts" where you'll see which posts are new. Or you can check "view today's posts" and all the posts from today will be there.

    For me the easiest is to just go to "view today's posts".

    when you click "view new posts", you will see...before the name of the thread...an envelope. if the envelope has a black dot on it, that means it is a thread you have replied to. seeing that helps me to remember.

    I've had lots of trouble with this same thing, and the idea about watching for the envelope with the dot has been helpful. Unfortunately, I know I have lost track of threads I've responded to.

    Sara,

    My email notification is checked but I haven't gotten any emails for a long time from here on the threads that I have posted on. Can you help? Thanks

    I never knew about the black dot on the envelope. Thanks for those who mentioned that.

    Your email could be filtering it as spam. Have you checked your bulk mail?

    What is bulk mail? We don't have our Spam filter activated. I use to get emails but the last few weeks I haven't.
