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. Do I know where it went? Heavens, no. What’s one thing you splurge on?

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. When our first baby came we used cloth diapers (so we didn’t have to pay for the disposable ones) and had to freeze dry them in the garage in the winter. That took forever!
