Default Re: Re-reading Tightwad Gazette

“Use it or lose it.” Vol 2 (p441 CTG)
Theme – Scheduling Consumption – (a method to control what you own.)

TG – Quote – ‘If you lack control over any area of your life – be it, time, money, or other resources – design a system to manage it. Order will save you stress as well as money.’

I known that this article is on gardening produces as an illustration of making or working out a system so that you have control over, whatever you are having a problem with.

Many years ago I started making charts and systems to cope with any little problem, long before I ever read a ‘Tightwad Gazette’.

Start point:
Inventory of your storage area, be it your freezer, bulk pantry, cosmetic, or toiletry storage areas, would be a good place to start using this article. If you haven’t already done so!

Using what you have at hand is a good way to save money. Setting up your storage areas so that you can find anything under 5 minutes. Then you don’t have to go buy more because you cannot find it!

I know that I need to update inventory of my storage areas soon! They are now full!
