Here's the new thread for the 2011 Frugal Challenge. Let's see how frugal we can be this year!

I'll join you! I haven't been the most active on FV in the past few months when it comes to it, but I plan to. I've stayed frugal and on the band wagon but haven't posted what I've done or anything like that. I haven't been keeping track of my no spend days (which I'm going to try to start to again), but my c/c has been significantly lower thanks to not spending and staying as far away from stores and restaurants as possible. DH's is another story.:lol:

I've been pretty frugal this year, but will have to be more frugal due to being called off at least twice every two weeks and it cuts into how much I get in my check.

I'm in...I'm going to be moving in February, and will be paying a slightly higher rent....So I want to really just get back into the swing of things and see how much I can really save. I like the challenge of it!

 

[madhen]

I'm in!! Always room for improvement!

 

[Mom23boys]

Count me in too! I am going to work harder at reducing our expenses and debt this year. Now that I am finally graduated from college, I can use the time and energy I used to study and complete assignments to reduce and reuse! I am looking forward to 2011!!

 

[dwallyfam]

Count me in on this one. I have to do a lot better this year.

 

[onencgirl]

I'm in. Time for me to be accountable for what I do.

 

[Palooka]

Count me in!!

 

[dean]

I'm back in for 2011.
I've been doing a pretty good job on being frugal-but can always do better.

 

[McD]

In. We've been really lax lately and I'm regretting it.

 

[qsaver704]

I will try. I need to, so it won't hurt.

 

[Debbie-cat]

I'm in this year. I fell by the wayside posting last year so I plan on being more accountable in 2011. Always room for improvement.

 

[sueh]

I'm in too!

I really need to tighten the frugal belt even further!

 

[Mamaw]

Consider me in. I have made some effort in 2010 but need to grow in this area. Plus I want to put forth more planning into where my money actually goes. Must get debt down.....must get debt down.......

 

[py0]

In! I spend so much in 2010 it's definitely frugal time 2011! I need people to stop me from buying frivolous stuff

 

[Sassyclass]

I'll see you here on the 1st. Now off to think of some new ways to do better than this year.

[EmilyD]

I am in, too!

 

[Vanilla]

Count me in! I've been doing some budget planning for certain expenses for next year, & know that we need to be more frugal in other areas in order to balance our budget. I definitely need this challenge to keep me in tract & to get some frugal tips.

 

[Kyfirestorm]

I'm in! We were really doing good . . . until we fell off the TMM bandwagon and I can really tell the difference! Dave would tar and feather me if he knew

We've moved and are currently renting a 30 acre farm and we have asked that we be given first notice if the wonderful people we're renting from decide to sell it . . . so frugal is a NECESSITY because we need to get as much money put back for a downpayment as possible!
