Pretty much all of my family is ok with me being a penny pincher. We all grew up that way. My brother has a tendancy to ask me why can't we______fill in the blank. I tell him wait until YOU have a kid or two and then all those Vegas trips and ski weekends will come to a stop.. He doesn't think so, boy is he in for an awakening.... LOLOL... DH family is good with us too, except his brother and wife.. I have already talked at length about their spending habbits.. She thinks I should be able to go just about anywhere and just spend... OH well..... To each their own...

My husband
My boys

Grandma and Grandpa do somewhat. They know that I don't like to owe money. They also know that I don't ask them for anything (unlike my sister).

My hubby, my mom and most of all me! It isn't easy to be frugal when you watch almost everyone around you buying the latest and newest toys, but the peace of mind in not owing and having money in the bank is WELL WORTH IT!@!!

DS age 19 is very impressed with me. We used to have a very different lifestyle and he had no clue I could pinch a penny so hard.

I would say DH most of all, but others have noticed too and they are starting to ask for tips and advice. There are still some though who are interested, but wouldn't admit it for the world, LOL. They will come around though, sooner or later, LOL. Especially if the gas and grocery prices continue to go higher.
