Prairie Eco-Thrifter

JULY 16, 2013

Staycations are inexpensive activities that your family can do at home, or locally, that you can all enjoy without running up an expensive vacation tab. You can have just as much fun roasting marshmallows, telling campfire stories and playing outdoors at home as you can at a campground. Frugal Date Nights. Be Treasure Hunters.

In the month of October, my challenge will be to find $1000. Mondays thru Saturdays in October, I will have ideas to help you find $1000 too. On Sundays, we’ll meet here to catch our breath, and let everyone know how we’re finding our $1000. Find a Part-Time Job. Find a Seasonal Part-Time Retail Job.

I keep a roll of heavy paper (which I buy at Home Depot for about $11 for a roll about 2 inches thick and 2 feet wide) to use in wrapping packages, protecting floors during home projects, making garage sale signs and etc. I just printed them out on my ink jet home printer. Make or assemble the parts and pieces of the game.

It is a perfect fit for me, as frugality is my hobby and passion, but I also find myself very attracted to the “go green” movement. The fact that the Prairie EcoThrifter focuses heavily on both topics – frugality and green living – really appealed to me. For the most part, I am perfectly happy being at home.
