Happy October! I really need to step up my game this month, and I'm probably not the only one since we never even had a dedicated Frugals thread for September. We went on vacation in September, which wasn't cheap, and then we got hit with some additional expenses, so time to knuckle down.
I have at least postponed two purchases through judicious application of duct tape - broken vacuum cleaner wand and electric mattress pad cord that keeps coming unplugged. I'm also doing a favorite fall frugal by purchasing cool looking squashes for fall decor that can be eaten instead of gourds and such that cannot. I think that's it for now.
