New to Chat Forums and Frugal Village
I'm a SAHM living in North Idaho. I have two young boys ages 2 and 3. My husband and I are following Dave Ramsey's steps to Financial Peace and are currently debt free (except for the house) and are currently trying to save up our 6 month emergency fund. I'm trying to stretch a tight budget even tighter and look forward to learning new tips and strategies from everyone and will share some of my own!
I enjoy cooking, sewing, and keeping my boys busy. My goal this coming year is to recycle and reuse what we already own and to challenge myself in being more frugal with our food budget.

Hi and welcome from Florida!
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.
