Hello from Idaho!
Howdy!
I found this site a few days ago while searching for ways to be frugal. The economy has me (like everyone else) worried, so I thought instead of sitting around doing nothing I would get a little proactive.
I'm not looking for a drastic way-of-life change...just some ideas on how to best make do with what we have and make it stretch a little further if need be.
Anyhow, I look forward to reading and learning here!

You'll find tons of great ideas here, from the simple changes and stretching of a dollar to some off the wall, really fun ways to save money!
I hope you enjoy the Village!
