Not a lot of action on the frugals thread this month! What's up, everyone? Has the spring made you lose your frugal ways?!? :D
Of course, I don't have anything new and exciting to report. It's...
Made a quick shopping trip to BJs last night. Good timing, too, as I had several coupons that expired yesterday. Got free bagels plus saved a few bucks on stuff we regularly eat. Was also able to use...
Welcome from the other side of the country! :)
And I'm back with more to add -- woo-hoo!!! Used coupons when at the vet clinic to get two free doses of flea/tick meds for my dogs. I think they are something like $4-$5 per dose so a few bucks...
This.
Gardnr, smart move paying by credit card. I'm a fan of earning the miles, too, and getting free plane tickets. Alas, I discovered that my eye doctor doesn't take AmEx so no miles on my trip there...
Here's a new monthly thread for our daily/weekly/monthly/occasional frugal activities! Post away my friends! :cool:
Hello and welcome!
That's awesome! His band Sugar is still one of my all-time favorites.
:D:D:D:D:D
Succumbed to the siren song of the tea house this past week. $17, but it was worth it. It was a very busy week and being able to sit quietly and enjoy some tea and delicious food was so wonderful.

Hello and welcome, from a fellow New Englander!
Remembered to soak black beans and then get them into the crockpot for cooking yesterday. Now there are twelve containers of black beans in the freezer. Considering how busy we both are right now, I...
In Massachusetts taxes are due today. We get an extra day since yesterday was a state holiday (Patriots Day). But I'd already beat the deadline (for once!). My accountant electronically filed them on...
Worked a day-long registration event for new college students. Nice chunk of extra change in the paycheck. Breakfast and lunch were provided. The lunch was either 2 slices of pizza + a small salad or...
Yes, there are a variety of different possible combinations, but this is not an area of your life that needs to be complicated. Truly. Pick one of the various streaming devices (Firestick, Roku,...
Nice work, everyone! I love hearing about all of the different frugal moves people are using so please keep 'em coming!!!
We made two homemade pizzas last week. We ate one for dinner the first...
Saved $0.25 per gallon on gas yesterday! Of course, I only needed 9 gallons, but it's something. Was successful in my tea-water-snacks planning for my NYC trip and didn't stop to buy anything. Came...
I had to run some errands yesterday and managed to get organized enough that I could do them all in one trip. I even remembered to bring the plastic bags with me for recycling at the local grocery...
I haven't had much to report as of late, but I finally have something today!
I had scheduled a haircut appointment scheduled for this afternoon. I had scheduled it so that I would have enough time...
New monthly thread!
Another corrective lenses wearer here! But I must admit, they will need to pry my contact lenses from my cold dead hands!!! :D This thread has been a good reminder that I need to make an...
Sorry to hear that your dog is in pain, ctg492. Does she has spondylosis or degenerative disk disease? My understanding is that both can be treated surgically in many cases. For a dog that is only 5...
Went to my favorite tea house today because needed to have a couple of meetings and it was a central meeting place. Spent more than necessary, but this is the frugals thread so I won't dwell on that!...
