My husband and I have four kids ranging from age 3-8, and I am a stay-at-home mom. Last year, to make a little extra cash, I started boarding dogs through Rover, and I am about to start a very very part time job using my RN license for a home care company. canned peaches = summer in a jar 2. What’s your best frugal win?

The biggest changes have to be my decision to become a full time college student. I've never been to college before, and other than becoming a mom, becoming a student was the biggest adjustment I've ever made in my life! I looked at the pictures of all my food deals and thought to myself "Wow, we used to eat crap!"

One of our FAVORITE ways to save on food is by ordering kids’ meals! Being the broke 20-somethings we are, we tried to spend the least amount of money on food as possible, while still being satisfied. Now, many of you know by now that I am a girl that loves food and eating. Written by my daughter, Brittany.

My Dad spent weeks planning a 10th-anniversary surprise for my Mom and even enlisted the help of the staff at Artist Point. Stroll around the World Showcase at Epcot, sharing drinks, good food , and music along the way. Read all about her time there over at her blog Britty Loves Disney. They served her a ring for dessert!

Today we’re meeting a reader who is an artist, a homeschooler, a boy-mom, and a renter by choice. 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). Also, growing our own food. Hello, everyone!

Since Noah is half Jewish and half Baptist/Cuban it’s important for him to learn about both cultures and since he’s not with us full time I have a lot to teach him! The recipes aren’t all for Jewish food in this cookbook though! Get Cooking! I received the same prize as the winner. All opinions remain my own.

Limiting waste is what really drives most of the habits I have that would qualify as “frugal” – reducing/eliminating food waste, returning unneeded items, pursuing refunds, checking on warranties, repairing things, etc. For me, being in the kitchen and making food for people is an act of love.
