    Default From New Jersey

    Hello from New Jersey
    well not from here, but that is where I am. I am just learning my way around a frugal world, here in NJ everything seems so much higher.

    I have already lurked through ton of information and have a ton to still go. I don't know how to make my profile or set goals, but a few more weeks, maybe I will figure it out?
    Anyone wishing to exchange store saving tactics, or other ways to save, i will be here.

    Thanks and have a great day

    Hi, I'm in NJ, Ocean County! It is expensive here, but there's a LOT to do and a lot of resources around. Don't know when you moved here, but summer usually has enough fun stuff to make the stuff you have to put up with worth it.
