    Default Hi from Indiana

    Hello everyone, I'm so glad that I have found you!

    A little about me... I am married with 3 children (ages 14, 12, and 8). I am a SAHM. I used to be uber frugal when the kids were little and money was especially tight but I have been slacking off for the last couple of years. I have been considering getting a job to make up for increasing prices but I think I'm going to give frugality another try and make bargain hunting my part time job. I don't know why I got away from it because I used to enjoy the thrill of getting good bargains and stocking up on great deals. I can't wait to read all of your great frugality insights and learn some new tricks!

    Nice to meet you all!

    Hi magnolia,
    " May we never let the things we can’t have or don’t have or shouldn’t have spoil our enjoyment of the things we do have and can have. As we value our happiness, let us not forget it. One of the greatest lessons in life is learning to be happy without the things we cannot or should not have."
    -Richard L. Evans

    Thank you all for the warm welcome.

    I see lots of fellow Hoosiers here. Momishem, I went to Ball State and have lots of great memories of Muncie. Ali Lee, I have been to Ft. Wayne too to go to the zoo and also to go to a Martina McBride concert. Good times!

    I have lived in Anderson, Muncie, Indy and now Columbus. It's nice to meet you all.
