    Talking New here but not to being frugal

    Hello! I'm so glad I found this site. I have always been somewhat frugal. I love shopping at thrift stores and doing what we can to conserve gas and electricity. I've returned to college so we've had to bite the bullet a bit more But I enjoy a challenge. I've already been able to use some tips. I'm saving all my change and my husband's too.

    I look forward to getting to know more about the people here and tips as well. After this summer of electric bills in Texas, we really need it. LOL

    Hello and fellow Texan. I can relate to those outrageous electric bills . I think you will really enjoy it here. Please feel free to jump in anywhere and make yourself right at home.
