  1. Laundry
    I only have one line outside, and a bit of room in the house for hanging. I live in canada so a load would take all day to dry out there. I have about 3-4 loads every day to do.

    I need a place to motivate me. A place where I can hold myself acountable for money, and the act of SAVING money. Lately, it seems to slip through my fingers. Not big purchases, as much as $5 here, $5 there. My coupons are in a pile. My coupon book is full of expired coupons. I am spending WAY...

    In the last 3.5yrs., I've been rather quiet, posting occasionally. I've decided that I'm going to partcipate more in posting and starting threads for discussion. I really like being a member here. I also enjoy the friendly atmosphere of Frugal Village and being frugal is part of my lifestyle.

    This is the first time I've done all my shopping (both stores) and I saved more than I spent. I think I'm getting the coupon/rain check thing down. DH was so impressed he started bragging to the guy behind me. People around here don't use coupons...it's amazing. I even got a case of 28 ounce...

I know I could be more frugal about what I buy - I mean I could open my own scrapbooking store with the stuff I stockpiled because I liked it! And now, I am into crocheting - let's not talk...

  16. Christmas
    and call them "living ornaments" if they don't quite bickering!!! I'll use garland to steady them so they don't fly off in the wind. Maybe,just maybe if they are good I'll string some big Christmas lights up there so they can cuddle close to them to stay warm.;) They are just going slightly...

They could be rolling, slipping,bunching or riding up &  I hang on to them and suffer because they are still usable and aren't worn out. Well today is the day I am freeing myself and...
