Festival of Frugality 234
I am pleased to announce another great Festival from our friend Penny of Penniless Parenting. This “Life Stages Edition” is all about saving money no matter what your situation may be. Please check out her favorite submissions below:
Life Changes That Have Saved Us Money by BudgetingWithTheBushmans.com, one of my favorite ultra frugal blogs.
Boomer, from BoomerandEcho.com disses my “Frugal Hero” in this post where he mentions that he Thinks The Tightwad’s Gazette’s Amy Dacyczyn is Off Her Rocker. Ha, I guess he won’t be liking my blog much, as I’ve been called the Amy Dacyczyn of the 21st century… OrBudgetingWithTheBushmans.com, for thatmatter. But thats ok, I like this post for the creative ideas of hers that he shares, even if he thinks they’re bad ideas.
Collaborative Consumption to Save Money on BarbaraFriedbergPersonalFinance.com talks about how communal consumption, sharing on a large scale, can save you lots of money, and is the wave of the future. I don’t know about the future, but that is one of the benefits of my community- that things are like that now here, which saves me so much money, because we aren’t all buying 10 versions of the same thing- things get passed around from family to family to use as needed.
Making Money Out of Molehills from SeeDebtRun.com is a post by a new blogger who decided to tackle her debt, and she offers some pretty good ideas, even for those of us not so new to this frugal game.
Next weeks host is Debt Free by Thirty so be sure to check out their site for all the newest frugal article. As always, don’t forget to send your entries and be sure to contact me if you are interested in hosting a future festival. Open dates can be found on the schedule and you can use the contact page if there is a date you are interested in.
