New Here
I found this site after DH and I made the decision to REALLY start buckling down and start saving some money. For DH, that meant less eating out, not buying that extra magazine. For me, it meant finding every possible way to scale back,make do with what we have and get back to my frugal roots.
I've been lurking a bit on and off and finally decided to join in the conversations! I'm loving all the tips and ideas here. I thought I was doing pretty good with what I have been doing, but I'm not even hitting the tip of the iceberg! I'm looking forward to getting to know all of you

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