Thrifty Thursday........

I wanted this week to revisit some of the posts from 2008 that I had done on saving money.

This first post also includes a link to a quiz to see how financially fit you are.

This second post was written back in 2008 and I still haven't achieved everything......however the points are all still applicable....

I did a couple of posts on saving money on your food bill.  Part 1 is here and Part 2 is here.

Another post on a simple way to save money here

Can't remember when I started saving change, but it has paid for living room couch, a big chunk of cash for some 'toy' my husband wanted...

One thing with us, we are spoiled to living close to a walmart...we have a local grocer and between it and walmart can do pretty good...I think I would waste more money on gas than I would save if we went to a bigger city.

Anyway, enjoyed these posts...even if it did take me all day. I was busy with other stuff and would just read one in passing.
