    Default DD's frugal thought

    My dd's and I went to Wal-Mart this morning to do are weekly shopping. We were walking through the Easter stuff when the jelly beans appeared. DD, 16 asked if she could get some. I told her if she wanted to buy some that was fine. She looked at me and said "do you know how long I have to work to pay for these? I don't need them." I was so proud of her.
