Frugal Friday

 

So sorry for missing Thrifty Thursday yesterday, but I was exhausted, and my back was spasming with pain. After Bible study I made supper, crawled into a bath and then went to bed. Today, I have residual pain, but nothing like what I had yesterday.

So, what frugal things have been happening on the old Phillips homestead.

1.  Harvey replaced the wiring on the stove and so far, things are working. Our appliance guy (who is a friend from the small village Harvey grew up in) called to see if things had worked out, he would have come if there had been a problem. So far have saved that cost..00

2.  Put $3.35 in the change jars. I also added another $70 to my savings envelope.

3.  Still using some appliances to cook meals. Hopefully saving on electrical costs.

4.  Reading free books on my ereader (or ones I have purchased with points and gift certificates). 

5.  Using up bits and bobs of yarn knitting blankets. The same goes for knit fabric scraps on the rug.

6.  I will be sewing my Christmas outfit, have the pieces ready to cut out on some fabric I bought on deep discount.

7.  I had some of the ice cleats work their way out of my cleats. Harvey realized that they were nails that had been cut off and inserted and so is fixing them for me. The ones I bought last year were fairly expensive so fixing them is saving me some cash and will make walking on ice easier once again.

Everybody have a wonderful evening. 

God bless.
