The Simple Pleasures of Life


• Fri 15 Dec 2006 - ~ Frugal Fridays ~

Posted in Simplified

This week for Frugal Fridays, Crystal asked three questions.  I've decided to join in this week and answer them.  Join us if you have time and are interested.

1. What is the best resource for frugality you've found (book, magazine, website, etc.)?

Shop, Save and Share by Ellie Kay.  This book changed my mindset on how to be more resourceful and her website is chockful of wonderful tips, ideas and resources along with her other books ~ Women's Guide to Family Finances, Debt Diet, and her newest book, Mom's Guide to Family Finances.


2. What is the best deal you've gotten recently?

I got several great deals this past week.  One was the purchased of a much requested item for $20 which retails for about $45.  I also purchased several gifts for under $5.00 getting additional items worth up to $13 free w/each purchase.

3. What is your best idea for a creative and inexpensive gift?

In the past, and the plan this year is to make homemade cakes in inexpensive disposal pans and decorate for each individual recipient ~ kinda personalize each cake. I will also be making homemade sugar cookies and mixes in a jar, primarily cinnamon pancakes.

This was fun and I hope you join in and share your answers.  Please leave me a comment if you do, so that I can come over and visit.  Have an awesome day.
