Hi All! I am a new member, just registered. I have lived frugal for a long time now, and love it. We are saving money where we can, and try to live as simple as possible. Me, my husband and our two kids aging 7 and 3 live on a farm in Norway. It is my husbands family-farm and his father and...

I have never posted a personal type post before other than the one everyone already knows...the bankruptcy and bank(s) problem. However I am curious...have you ever disowned a close family member? Am I the only one who has done this? Someone years ago told me I was the coldest, most uncaring...

I found Frugal Village by doing a search for Recession Widows. I actually thought I was the only one calling myself that! (No offense intended for true widows, for they have my sincere sympathies.) In my day to day real life, I know people who have been "grazed" by the economic situation, but...

Here's Marco He joined us forever on Friday night. :)

Hello! I am interested in joining in the fun here. :sun: I lurk on several different finance/frugality forums, but I have been looking for a "home" where I can jump in and participate because, as motivating as lurking can be, I know that I truly get the most inspiration when I am an active...

I was voted in to my closest VFD Monday. (I live in a professional fire district, the VFD is the next closest district - some of the members live down the street from me.) I was issued turnout gear today and will be put on the roster after having a physical done. This is good timing as my...

I'm a life long frugal person and I just recently lost my job. Fortunately, I've been planning for it so it wasn't a complete shock. My husband is in graduate school and only gets a stipend, so things are going to be really tight. I am bookmarking lots of frugal sites/blogs to help me keep my...

Hi, I'm currently suffering from year end mood and i decided to start 2011 with an old resolution (which i failed miserably to uphold this year 2010). Basically I need to be held accountable for my spending on frivolous stuff. Hope i'll be a active member in FV in 2011 :sun: How did you hear...

Learned about this site by reading Sara's column in our newspaper. I grew up living with frugal parents [they had to be because money was scarse]; and have always lived a simple, frugal lifestyle, and enjoy it. I am happily married [40 years]. No kids [by choice] We have one very loving...

The link to a pair of men's crocheted slippers please tell me where I can find it? I have been searching for it and can't find it and wanted to start a pair tonight! :yikes: Please, please? They kind of looked like mocccasins and were simple to make. Thanks in advance! :)

When will the 27,000th member sign up to Frugal Village? Doesn't matter if it is a spammer or not. :lol: 5000 juju to the one with the closest answer. I think I will limit the time alloted to make your guess. This thread will close in 10 days. Good luck!
