    Smile Hello from the UK

    Hello everyone

    I get the feeling that I may be in the minority here, being from the UK!

    Let me introduce myself - I'm a loving fiancee to Craig , we are to be married in 2012. We have Dkitty to fuss over, she is my furbaby and I love her soo much!

    I'm trying hard to lead a simple, frugal, debt free existance in the UK's capital city, which is not easy! Trying to learn and save every day

    We do have plans to emigrate to CA/NV once we are married, so looking forward to learning about discount stores and the like across the pond.

    That's all from me, hopefully I'll be brave to post elsewhere soon!
    Me, Indianna - 21
    Future DH, Craig - 25
    DD - 14 weeks
    DChatte, Martha- 16

    Welcome to Frugal Village from Arizona!!!!

    You will love living in either Nevada or California. California can be expensive but it's a great state.

    When you come over, you should check out Arizona. It gets hot (really hot!!!) in the Summer, but the rest of the year it's wonderful. We're in a suburb of Phoenix and we love it here. Housing prices are not too bad - much better than California or the Vegas area.

    Welcome!!! I have learned so much from the other people on this board.
