Re: Did you grow up in a frugal family?
Absolutely. I didn't know until I moved out that people could BUY canned fruit & jam, etc. I thought everyone had a cupboard with glass jars of gorgeous fruits & veggies ........ I also thought everyone sewed, knit and was otherwise creative. My dad could make anything we could describe.........from furniture to some very odd items.
My grandparents on both sides were also frugal folks. Interestingly, I have one sister & she was raised right along side me............she is the oposite of frugal to a fault. Can't save a dime even if someone gives her the dime.
Can't understand it!
