Frugal Friday

Seems every where you look budgeting has become part of the topic. A few months ago our local TV station was doing a news story on a mother of three who paid cash for her groceries. I was stunned that this was newsworthy. C'mon had everyone gone that far off reality that paying cash for your groceries was a novel idea?? They even did a close up of her handing her cash to the clerk...

For years I have "planned five" when shopping. I look through the weekly grocery flyer and plan five meals. The other two days - we wing it - leftovers or the $5 pizza. I've always paid cash for groceries, a great way to stay on budget. Who'd have known I was ahead of my time!

Frugal Friday is going to be my attempt at sharing special deals, budget ideas and my favorite....freebies!
