The Frugal Girl

NOVEMBER 6, 2023

I have 11 kids, ages 9-29, and two cats. I like to bake and read, and I spend time chauffeuring kids to activities and games. I volunteer at my kids’ school at lunch time and other events. This was a time I had been thinking about not teaching anymore and staying home, so I was looking for new ideas to be thrifty.

In fact, it was Terri's long-standing "Frugal Fridays", "Thrifty Thursday" and " Frugal Week " posts that have inspired me to create my own ongoing accountability list by way of this and future posts celebrating the Art of Frugality.
