The Frugal Girl

JANUARY 9, 2024

My husband and I live in the Willamette Valley in Oregon with our three kids, ages 4-6. My cute kids when they were little I used to be a Spanish teacher until I stopped working to stay home with my kids. Additionally, it’s really important to us to have money to give to our kids so we save for that reason too.

Did you buy the materials to make that cute craft that you found on Pinterest but the bag is still sitting in your dining room…3 months later? I’m always amazed by the amount store tags I see on clothing and household item at thrift stores. The neighbor kids are doing quite well on my street.

I want to challenge myself to rethink our purchases by taking advantage of more cost effective solutions, like borrowing, buying second hand, or just making do with what we already have. While I love thrift stores, I can be easily swayed to run into Target, TJ Maxx, and/or Kohl’s when I feel like I need something.
