The Frugal Girl

DECEMBER 11, 2023

As a teenager, I saved quite a bit of the money I earned babysitting and working in a dining hall. I think I have grown in this area into seeing money as a tool, instead of trying to hoard as much as possible and be miserly. I would probably add it to our savings account for house projects.

Some families find it feasible to make drastic cuts to non essential expenditures such as entertainment, dining out, and vacationing. Budgets are also helpful tools to identify and minimize waste. Use a savings account to pay down debts. The monthly surplus will become the funding source for debt reduction and savings.

We live on the side of a small mountain in a quiet, rural town, but we’re less than 20 miles from a city of about 25,000 people and its shopping and dining opportunities. I learned to save money by watching my parents. (I I still remember saving my change as a kid so I could “shop” for books at yard sales.)
