new from Indiana
Remember that song 'I was country before country was cool'? I feel that way about being frugal. With the economy the way it is more people are starting to be frugal but 'I was frugal before frugal was cool.'
I think maybe the easiest way to introduce myself here is to answer the questions in the first post.
How did you hear about frugal village?
typed 'frugal' into a search engine (one where I earn points towards gift cards).
What interests you here?
learning more ways to be frugal, sharing my insights and camaraderie.
What will you contribute?
An eclectic mix of stuff, not really sure on any specific points yet.
Do you know any other members here?
Not yet, but I'm hoping to change that.
How many kids? Ages?
4 'kids' 29,28,25,22
grandkids 13,9,8, -7mos and counting.
I'll have to do the rest later, I have to give over the computer for the night.
