    Hey all-

    Just checking in!

    This frugal thing is a whole new world to me!

    I'm 22 and my b/f is 23. We both work well paying jobs and have no idea where all our money goes.

    We are planning on buying a house before the end of 2008 so we are trying to get all our bills paid off and save up as much as possible!

    Hope I can learn a bunch from you guys!

    Kristan
