Finally joining.... From Australia
Hi. I've been lurking around this site for quite a while now, over a year easily. I don't join many forums but have found that I am definately lurking more around here so I thought I should join. All the people have come across as really nice, hlepful and informative. I hope I can do the same for everyone else.
I'm 25, from Australia and married now to my handsom husband for almost 1 year. I absolutely love the frugal life style. Learning about it, trying out new ideas and tracking our progress. It is what has allowed me and my husband to buy our own house and make extra payments on very average incomes. I still have lots to learn and am excited to be part of such a great place.
Thanks for having me..... Moonface001
