JANUARY 9, 2024

I think that I heard about Kristen’s blog through Katy, the Non-Consumer Advocate. I don’t know how I heard about Katy’s blog first! How did you become interesting in saving money? I think I first got interested in money by … not having any! I have always wanted to save money for the future.

SEPTEMBER 22, 2015

This post has been reprinted from the Frugal Luxuries Food blog circa 2009.
