Shereen Travels Cheap

DECEMBER 13, 2023

Winter is right around the corner and some places have gotten colder already, which can make doing activities outside not that fun. If you're visiting family over the holidays, these can all give you a break from being cooped up inside together, do some bonding activities, or to get away from them altogether for a little bit.

Family Balance Sheet

APRIL 11, 2020

The PA governor has shut down all non-essential businesses indefinitely and we’ve now been ordered to stay at home unless traveling to essential jobs, needed supplies, or outdoor exercise as long as we practice social distancing. Pre-coronavirus, I considered having 3 months of expenses saved in cash to be sufficient.

We had a coal stove at home, but my brother and my shared bedroom was just a few feet from the stove. Plus, it can be really inconvenient to “make do or do without!” Do you have a funny story about making do? In the winter, it was fricken cold in there! The kids fell for it hook, line and sinker.

The Frugal Girl

NOVEMBER 6, 2023

But then I look in the drawers and realize I just bought 12 pairs of pants when only 5 would do. It’s not a big splurge, but I take my kids at home out to McDonald’s for lunch once a week. (I’ve I’ve been doing it for 28 years now?) I also hate mending – which is not frugal at all.
