Hi from MA
Hi, I'm a newbie to the site. My husband and I have 6 children ages 11-3 (the 3 year olds are twins). We live on one salary, dh's, as I stay home to homeschool our two oldest boys (the others are at school for the first time this year, the twins go to 3 days of preschool).
We are pretty frugal already, but need to tighten the belt more. I hope to find some great tips and advice here, as well as to offer some of my own.
I'm looking forward to "meeting" everyone.

from Illinois! I love your screen name! You must have your hands full with 3 year old twins! I barely got through the three's with single kids!
You should be able to find all kinds of belt tightening strategies here! You'll love it!
