The Frugal Girl

JANUARY 9, 2024

My cute kids when they were little I used to be a Spanish teacher until I stopped working to stay home with my kids. We spend most of our time seeing friends and family, participating in our church activities or working on our property. Tell us a little about yourself! My husband is a middle school language arts teacher.

That worked for a little while, but as an adult, I needed to be fiscally responsible for myself and learn some impulse control. I’m all about the small steps lately, because they work. Starting small and working your way up is very effective and you will see examples of its effectiveness everywhere you look. Small Steps.

The machine worked for a week before a new problem arose. Upon more online research, my husband felt the new repair would be beyond his ability, so we started looking on Craigslist. Fortunately, my 17 year old dryer still works like a charm. We found a guy who buys appliances from bank foreclosures and resells them.

Selling on eBay, Amazon or Craigslist. Yard sales are great, especially if you have a lot of stuff that you just want to get rid of, but if you have fewer yet more expensive items – electronics, furniture, etc – than selling through an online marketplace like eBay, Amazon or Craigslist may be a better option.
