Ways to Make Do With What You Have

Prairie Eco-Thrifter

NOVEMBER 21, 2013

We were poor, Mom and Dad lived every day showing us what it meant to ‘make it do’ and we often ‘did without’ Here are my thoughts on frugal ways to make things do. A good deal on a big bag of fresh lettuce isn’t thrifty if you can’t use it up before it rots. Buy good clothing, used.

For many, the end of the year holiday shopping frenzy can override our saner, more thrifty selves. We get desperate to find gifts for everyone on the list. Spending our precious and all too limited time searching online and in stores. I know I do. In fact, I did today! In fact, I did today! Winter clothes. Cosmetics and jewelry.

Green, Frugal Alternatives To the Gym

Prairie Eco-Thrifter

AUGUST 6, 2012

There are plenty of things that can be done that are both frugal and eco friendly that have nothing to do with belonging to a fitness center. I love the gym because everything I need to get a great workout is right there. Weights, cardio machines, mats, fitness balls, and even some classes to switch it up. Around here, it costs only $3.50

Going Frugal. Last week I told you that my hubby and I were headed to BC to visit my grandfather whom I hadn’t seen in 8 years. Well this week I wanted to give you an update on how the trip went. It went FABULOUS!! We had such a good time. We got to catch up on so many things that have gone on. It felt so great to see him and bond.

MAY 30, 2011

It is a perfect fit for me, as frugality is my hobby and passion, but I also find myself very attracted to the “go green” movement. The fact that the Prairie EcoThrifter focuses heavily on both topics – frugality and green living – really appealed to me. Think that is counter-productive to my frugal lifestyle?

Young and Thrifty looks at Canadian vs. US Travel rewards cards and finds that the canucks are being short changed. Yesterday on my walk home from work I was flying high. I felt like I was just bursting with happiness. Usually when I walk home, I listen to a book. It’s how I get my reading done. I was dressed warm and dancing away.
