    Talking Hello! Newbie from Arizona

    I am very excited to have found this forum. What great knowledge I see here.

    I have been on a very straight and narrow road towards frugality for a while. So far I have....

    Purchased front loader washer

    Put in clothes line, we have a new dryer but that will be saved for rainy days

    Changed out to energy saver light bulbs

    Garden, garden, garden

    Traded my minivan for a more fuel efficient vehicle

    Trying a new way of grocery shopping so that I dont have to drive into town every week, big monthly shop at Sams Club and biweekly grocery stores for loss leaders

    Air conditioning kept on energy saver and family will just have to adjust

    Use solar oven for at least one meal per day to keep heat out of the house and save costs of cooking

    And I am sure there are more things I am doing and I hope to learn LOTS more from all of you

    HI! From Oregon! You sound very frugal already, but I hope you learn here (I have!) and I hope we learn from you as well!

    P.S. I lived in Prescott for a few years and loved it! But I am Oregon born and she called me back!
