The Frugal Girl

JANUARY 29, 2024

Used bookstores, fair trade products, and locally sourced food/baskets/pottery are favorites, in addition to monthly outings with my kids. There’s always been garage sales/flea markets, library, state parks, fishing. I usually take laundry pods & wash clothes wherever for less luggage/cost. Heavens, no.

You can now buy, sell, trade, and share, with fellow fans ! Think of Ubokia as being an online garage sale where you are encouraged to share exactly what it is you are looking for. Helping a new mom get a used stroller, at a fair price. Trade baby clothes, for toddler clothes. -

Prairie Eco-Thrifter

SEPTEMBER 25, 2012

We shopped at garage sales, turned down the heat, combined errands to use less gas, didn’t buy a lot of prepared food, cooked at home and the like. We mowed the grass, made our clothes, cleaned house, cooked , and fixed broken stuff. We didn’t have a clothes dryer. Peggy: Well, we did everything ourselves.
