The Frugal Girl

NOVEMBER 20, 2023

Today we’re meeting a Midwestern reader who only occasionally masquerades as Mrs. Potato Head. ? We bought our house as a short sale in 2008. I love how many people out there are making Christmas cookies with eyes, thanks to my children’s creativity. ? What’s your best frugal win? Did you ever go there?

On Sundays, we’ll meet here to catch our breath, and let everyone know how we’re finding our $1000. This post originally published back in November 2008. Mondays thru Saturdays in October, I will have ideas to help you find $1000 too. Since I looked somewhat presentable, I was happy to oblige.

That was in 2008, so you might imagine how that turned out! Funny enough, after being so focused on saving for so long, I don’t think we really did anything but say a prayer of thanks! Thank you, Shannon, for being so honest with your debt free story. After I read Total Money Makeover, I asked my husband to read it.
