This blog is to showcase steals, thrills, & mega deals in the shopping world. By this, I don't mean snatching up a Coach bag off E-bay for a couple hundred bones...I mean snatching up EVERYDAY needs (& sometimes wants) for pennies on the dollar...ie- children's socks for $1, cream of mushroom soup for 50 cents, Old Navy skirts for 99 cents...got it? Feel free to pass any of YOUR fab finds my way & I'll post them, giving credit to you of course. Happy Savings!

Oooh fun! I'm in. What with my cheapskate nature and the recession and all, I'm up for a frugal February.

I hope by frugality this means "Buy this at Old Navy for 50% off" and not "do your dishes by hand to save water costs." The first way is much more up my ally!

Ok, so Lindsey referred me to this! I am up for this game! I started yesterday , just forgot to leave a comment. I succeeded in the TP challenge, and today's challenge I am up for. I already drink out of my water sippy cup. :) NO water bottles live here. I am really looking forward to giving birth again, so I can get my El Camino sippy cup :) I love love those!!!
