Congrats Chrissie! I missed this news some how.

Kelli- Awesome job. People are so quick to wrinkle their noses at leftover coffee but its good as long as it didn't burn before its taken off the...

Jilly, I'm going to have to keep trying products one by one and see what I discover. I never thought I was picky-I used to shop at sav a lot when it was open. Not that you're suggesting I'm...

We had a good shopping trip last night saving close to $100 between what we bought for work and for home. Deals include free shower gel and deodorant, inexpensive Gatorade ( a must for us at work!),...

Thanks everyone from the bottom of my heart. Dh called one of his brothers and shared the good news. Other than my parents and the accountant, we've kept this quiet. We're afraid it will just...

I needed to register the deed to the restaurant today. It was a 30 mile trip one way so we ran several other errands in the process including getting the oil changed and stocking up ds with library...

Congrats Kat!

The check has cleared, the paper work is ready. I cried on the phone when I asked the accountant for the final figures. Tonight we will pay off the restaurant. I am so freaking thankful that...

That is really impressive! Keep up the good work.

Stella-so good to see you!

Tradd- great way to save money on the frame. Dh and I talk all the time about mindless ways people overspend. Congrats on the broker's license as well!

Today I am...

Thanks everyone. For years my dh has walked around with very little money in his pocket. I'm the one who pays for everything when we go shopping or out to eat. Last night we walked into the...

And I feel fine!!!!!

After 4 months of trying to reach a deal, we finally sold our house today! The proceeds from the sale of the house will be used to pay off the restaurant some time next...

Man, its terrible what life dishes out sometimes. My heart goes out to Stella and her sister.

Well our two evening garage sale (we ran it from 4 to 8 pm) was a decent success I think. We sold $120 worth of stuff. I did great on the new items that I had like crayons, deodorant and lotions. ...

Fidgie-ds cleaned a bunch of stuff out of his room yesterday. He has so many nice books for young readers! Oh, and the clothes! He grows faster than he can wear them out. We told him that we...

I received two free item coupons in the mail yesterday. Then last night I won a free case for my camera-I don't have one at the moment so this is a nice little win.

I think we might have...

Ds and I went with the other honor roll students from school to the Tiger game yesterday. We're tired and got too much sun inspite of trying to be careful. We spent a ton of money just staying...

I went to Rite Aid to pick up a couple of sales items. While there I noticed several things marked 75% off. I bought:5 boxes of sugar for 69 cents, 18 jellos for 19 cents each (these will go on the...

I received and paid the bill for the house repairs today. $1200 which was less that all of my 4 estimates by a minimum of $300 and a maximum of $3000 so I am very pleased with the end cost. Dh and ds...

Flowerseverywhere- I got the biggest grin from hearing about you and dh weighing his tool to find the correct size for rehab. That is totally the way my dh would do things. Excellent idea!

We...

Congrats on the raise AZURE!

I love the idea of using up the B&N gift cards on useful items besides books. The teas and chocolates sound so fun and indulgent!

Fidgiegirl-I always admire your...

Rosarugosa-I don't see anything funny about buying a bread machine. If it allows you to save money, eat better quality bread and you enjoy that bread I'd say its a great idea!

There's not too much...

Earlymorning- I didn't mean to sound so terrible. There have been other threads discussing these kinds of issues. My personal feeling are that I wish there were more money threads/posts. My...

I have just spent the last 45 minutes reading all the posts about the failures of this site. I came here for the financial support almost 12 years ago. I miss having more money discussions than we...

My frugal today is a sweepstake win. I received a nice engraved, wooden box with 32 assorted tea bags from Bigelow teas. It came with a copy of The Life of Pi. They said its valued at $50-I'm...

Steve, I think that sounds like a lovely evening. When we were first dating, one of the sexiest things about dh was that he would come to my apartment and cook for me. I still find it to be one of...
