Hello from Phila, everyone! I just want to thank you for all of the wisdom I've gained "lurking" the past few months. I don't know why it took me so long to finally join but I had an experience this weekend that made me realize I should bite the bullet. The first was the lack of coupons this Sunday in the paper. I thought it was just mine and then thought "I'll check the frugal village forum and see if anyone mentions it" and sure enough that was the first post I read. We are in the middle of our journey of getting out of debt which I'm sure I'll share more about as I post but your sharing of info has helped me tremendously- from the "stop spending" type challenges to the coupons and rebates. Thanks!
