We do put up decorations (ones I buy at garage sales or thrift stores and reuse each year). Bring in your slightly used, but in good shape costume and pick one from those others brought in – as a swap. Encourage your child to use their imaginations to come up with a costume out of materials on hand at home.

Highly rated, easy to use, and it sits gathering dust. Child did not like it, so we don’t use it. It’s not a big splurge, but I take my kids at home out to McDonald’s for lunch once a week. (I’ve He got his roofing urges out when he build our garage last year though!) 😉 10.

We live in the city, so we’re not allowed to hang our laundry outside. We’ve used this for about 6 weeks now, and we’ve been pleasantly surprised with how economical it is as well as how good it works. Don’t wash clothes until they’re truly dirty. Use mason jar containers. Conserve utilities.

We’re meeting an Arkansas reader today and initially, I thought she was the first one! Tell us a little about yourself Greetings from the NW corner of Arkansas, where I was born (around 40+ years ago) and raised. We use the eggs, harvest meat & if I can’t get out to hunt venison we’ve had friends give us meat.

For so long, we plodded along with next to nothing while our neighbors were running up their charge cards and using home equity loans to take vacations. We shopped at garage sales, turned down the heat, combined errands to use less gas, didn’t buy a lot of prepared food, cooked at home and the like.

However, whether you’re moving for a new job, better opportunities, or a change of scenery, the process of relocating can feel overwhelming. Over the years, it’s easy to accumulate items that you no longer need or use. Consider organizing a garage sale or using online platforms to sell unwanted items.

It’s a place where new residents quickly feel at home, thanks to the warm, welcoming community and the endless outdoor activities available right at their doorstep. However, transitioning to a new home, especially in a city like Tucson, requires some planning and effort. Remember, the process doesn’t have to be perfect.
