    Default Hello from just outside of Boston

    Hi all,

    My name is Chris.
    the basics-
    Married 14 years
    2 Daugthers 10 and 7, 1 Son - age 2.
    Sahm that does computer work parttime from home.
    Ages ago I belonged to another frugal living board at iVilliage and I have been looking for a new home with like minded folks.
    I have been noticing that my grocery bill has jumped and we don't really buy meat (DH hunts). So I would like to get that back under control at bit. I have gotten out of the couponing habit and need to get back to it. We have a bread thrift nearby that we use often.
    We live fairly frugally in a rather unfrugal area. Looking forward to meeting you all and sharing.

    Hi Chris,
