The Frugal Girl

JANUARY 22, 2024

For 20 or so years I’ve been homeschooling my kids, and am now down to about 1 1/2 (one full-time homeschooler, and one doing College Credit Plus with some support). I know I found The Frugal Girl through the Non-Consumer Advocate, and I’ve read nearly all the archives. What’s your best frugal win?

The Frugal Girl

MARCH 4, 2024

My dad was a blue-collar worker – a machine operator on the railroad who sometimes got laid off for periods of time in the winter. My mom cut coupons and sewed her own clothes and mine, as well. I enjoy playing the game and I like to win. What’s your best frugal win? Alan doesn’t share that regret.

My husband is an extremely hard worker as he works and goes to school full time. He has paid a price to win with hard work and sacrifice to reach his goals, and I truly admire him for that. It was the first time we consistently told ourselves NO to purchases. No new clothes, no vacation, no extra anything.
