I'm a newbie here too, but I've enjoyed reading so far. I'm glad that at least in the virtual world I can find the same minded people
(saving/investing vs. spending).
As regards to this thread, I and my DH are frugal, I'd say. It helps because we both detest shopping (except groceries since we have to eat
). I just wonder how we'll have to teach our DD be the same way, but she's still a toddler, so we have some time to think about.
