The Frugal Girl
NOVEMBER 28, 2023
I watched a couple of YouTube videos , put some gloves on, and got the job done. I tried a thrift store first, but came up dry. The post Five Frugal Things | I fixed it, Officer! I believe these bulbs are the original pair from when I got my van, so I figure that if one is burnt out, the other one is on its last leg as well.

Being self-employed, we felt we needed more than Dave’s recommended $1000 starter emergency fund that he outlines in his book, so our first step was to save a bit more for our home and office. Also, we needed to make some much-needed repairs to our home and office that really couldn’t wait until we paid off six figures.

This was basically the same as wearing PJs to the office. Nathan found this at a thrift store for a buck fifty or something. I hope that all it needs is a new battery (yes, I wore a non functioning watch all day). We have looked at CVS, Target, Wal-Mart and Office Depot. I forget where I got that adorable mustache ring.

We’re having an Ugly Sweater party at our office this year. And you don’t have to buy a new ugly sweater, you could either visit your favorite thrift store or decorate a sweater you already own. Gifts must be from a thrift store. Ugly Christmas sweaters are quite trendy this year. Gifts must be handmade.

I also wore leggings, because my office has been freezing, and it’s September now, so it’s totally acceptable behavior. Thrifted Earrings and necklace, self made. Tags: boots Victoria's Secret Target leggings self-made ruche Thrifted. Look at the carving. They are so cute. And that’s that!~

I moved the furniture around; I had left it the same as when I took over this office and had never really been comfortable. Have a big box ready to take the throw-away items and another for anything that is good enough to go to the local thrift store. Do you have an old TV lurking anywhere that is never watched? Do I need it?
