    Talking Frugal Tip 11/22

    Nearly everything can be cut in half -- use only half a dryer softener sheet, half the recommended amount of detergent, half a cotton ball, etc. Try it on anything you can think of - if it works, you save money, if it doesn't, what do you lose?

    Your right Michelle, great tip !!!!!! I love your avatar !!!


    Here's something else you can cut way back..
    If you make sugar sweetened drinks, cut the sugar back by 1/3 or more, put in a microwave safe container, put in enough water to cover and microwave for about 3 mins.... this will break open the molecules and make your sugar go further.... Then just add the syrap to your drink.......
