Frugal Friday
Heidi is starting to do "Frugal Friday" posts and I thought I'd join in. Heading off to bed soon, but here are a few frugal things we do/have done around here. Thoughts tonight will be about being frugal with kids. Point form...

-breastfeeding
-cloth diapering
-home made baby food
-hand-me-downs!!!
-borrow (and lend) baby/kid equipment between friends, this has been a huge blessing to us
-rethink wants and needs and priorities, does what we have work? could we make it work? where could we find what we need - garage sale, thrift store, borrowing, sale? is it really a need? how long will it last?

Okay, future "Frugal Friday" posts will be more fun, but I've got to head to bed. Tomorrow we leave on a not so frugal saturday and sunday - though we are packing a lunch and some snacks for tomorrow and have a gift card from some friends for milestones. So that will help with food costs. I'm so excited.

See you later.

    I don't really understand the frugal thing...is it the same as tedious things that you repetitively do all day/everyday? In that case mine would be the norm, just to survive.

    Have a great weekend!
