Hi Everyone!
Hi,
I'm excited to have found a forum to chat about all things thrifty, with like-minded people.
For the last few years, I've been researching and testing ways to save money and cut my bills. I've had great success! Recently, I've been increasingly focused on learning new practical skills, to which I credit my money-saving success. If I know how to do small repairs around my house, grow my own food, cook well from scratch, etc., I can save a lot of money.
I look forward to sharing my ideas and to learning new ways to save.
Thrifty Sister

Travel light. The baggage of the past can only hold you back.

Hi and welcome from Florida! Look forward to reading your posts.
Bank of America is THE godfather of Hell with Wells Fargo running neck and neck. When the world ends the only things that will be left are cockroaches, Walmart, Wells Fargo and Bank of America. Not necessarily in that order. The order remains to be seen.
