Prairie Eco-Thrifter

FEBRUARY 4, 2014

We both like to eat out. Living there would be a different animal altogether and it would take a much higher income to make do. Once my husband and I stopped getting hung up on income, and started thinking about financial management, and how to make the most of our money, we started creating a lifestyle we preferred.

Family Balance Sheet

JANUARY 26, 2016

I have made a pact with myself that if I don’t already own something that I need, I will either: make do with what I have, find said item at a thrift store, borrow, or forget about it. We have some home projects that we need to do and we have already set aside the funds. I think I’ll survive. Choose Thrift First.

Family Balance Sheet

JANUARY 17, 2018

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. We will need to cut back on dining out, but it is unrealistic for me to say we won’t eat at restaurants this year. Choose Thrift First.
