Default Re: Best Frugal Advice?

Learn to find happiness in things that are FREE. Instead of heading to a $7 movie...watch a sunset. Instead of buying a $10 clearance blouse, rethink your wardrobe- is there something I already own that will work? Instead of going out to dinner, make something new at home or rotate sharing homemade meal with friends. Instead of buying a book, borrow one from the library.

Life is full of freebies...train your brain to chose one of those freebies for entertainment and save things that cost for an occasional treat. Then, when you do spend on 'it', you appreciate 'it' even more!!
