My Awesome Clothing Swap Haul
Spring cleaning- don’t you love it? I do- it’s good motivation to finally go through my stuff and get rid of the clutter that’s been intruding in my life. I went through my children’s toys and sorted them out and took ot the things they never used, and then the rest, made sure to dedicate […]
Today’s Super Frugal Accomplishments (And Shop)
At first I wasn’t quite sure what I’d post about today, but then by the end of the day I realized I did so many frugal things that excited me and I simply can’t wait to share them with you. Last week I got 36 liters of soon to be expiring 1% milk. I attempted […]
My New ObiBox- Free Unlimited Calling to the USA

Gifted Some Great Groceries!

Anneliese’s New DIY Haircut
My nearly 6 year old daughter, Annelise, has gone through all sorts of permutations with her hair. First long-ish, then with bangs, then short into a pixie cut, then grown out, and it had nearly reached her lower back, and in my opinion, was so beautiful on her, and I was able to do all […]
Vipon- Discounts on Amazon
I was approached by Vipon, an online shopping platform that has incredible deals and steals for Amazon shoppers. I checked it out, and definitely think it is worthwhile for you to check out as well. So, how does Vipon work? You can go to their site, or download their app (also available in iOS and […]
What To Do With Lots of Free Expiring Milk – Again!
This is 1/10th of the milk I got, free Because I live in an area that is considered to be of a lower socio-economic background (gotta love a community like this, as we’re all in the same frugal living boat, so not much pressure to keep up with the Jones), from time to time we […]
