Default Re: What frugal thing did you do today?

We went to the movies today. That part definitely isn't frugal. But we stopped at a drug store on the way and bought candy for $.79/box (it was on sale). At the theater, the same candy in smaller boxes was $3.00 and $4.00. So what would have cost us $10.00 at the theater, cost us $2.37. We also went to a matinee, so that saved a couple of dollars over an evening show.

I remember when a movie was a cheap date. Sure isn't true today.
