Thrifty and Frugal
It is another lovely and smoke free day here on the old homestead. I had a visit to get my teeth cleaned at the dentist this morning so along with the middle of the month bills a bit of cash has been spent.
So what thrifty and frugal things have been taking place here on the Phillips homestead.
1. I hung two loads of clothes on the lines downstairs as Monday was slightly drizzly.
2. Had a free coffee at a friends one day this past week.
3. Combined as many errands as possible to save on fuel, plus wear/tear on the vehicle.
4. Picking veggies from the garden rather than purchasing.
5. Dehydrating herbs, freezing various veggies as well.
6. Got free apples and plums from the neighbours trees when looking after the yard and house.
7. Shopped using a list and stuck to the list. Things have gotten a bit more expensive but I am doing my best to keep things under or at budget.
8. Using up what is available here at home before putting it on the list.
9. Got free toothpaste, free floss and a free toothbrush at the dentists.
10. Will be putting $75.00 in the savings envelope and $9.55 in the savings jars this week.
So what frugal, thrifty things have you been up to this week?
Everybody have a wonderful evening.
God bless.
