I wonder if I’m really being frugal or if I am just being cheap. To me, frugal implies using resources in the wisest fashion and cheap implies a specific focus on getting the lowest price. Help me out, am I being cheap or just smart about money? Cheap or frugal? Cheap or frugal? Cheap or frugal?

I treasure my recipe cards that were hand written by my great grandmother. What a delicious gift of food!

The last time I went to Disney World , I was in 4th grade and I remember going with my grandma and great-grandma, throwing a tantrum because I wanted to meet Cinderella and my grandma and great-grandmother were taking their time at the souvenir shop. Think how much money you will save when you bring your own food and water ?
