New here but not to frugality :)
Hi everyone, I am Melinda, a 41-year old SAHM from the mid-west. I am new here ( great site by the way) but not to frugality. It is a passion of mine. I don't always do everything frugally but I love learning studying it and knowing I could do more should I ever need to. I have 2 teens both in high school, a DH, and lots of pets. I hope to keep learning and also to contribute!

Hi, I am also new to the site, but not to frugality. I have always enjoyed getting a bargain. There's nothing like it really.
My favorite thrifty thing to do is thrift store shop - I have gotten some amazing finds for both my kids and myself (my husband is not a fan - he likes that I don't spend alot, but then again - some things have found their way into his drawers without him knowing where they came from). As I have recently lost 96 lbs. through weight-loss surgery, the things I have picked up at these stores have been incredible.
I also have found Dollar Tree to be an incredible place to shop recently. I am married for almost 24 years and we have three sons, almost 20, 18 and almost 13. We have two kittens. After living in New Jersey and Colorado, we've been in Suburban Philadelphia for six years now.
And I am a big professional wrestling fan! I'm looking forward to learning alot of what this site has to offer.
