About Us

I am a stay at home mom with four wonderful kids. I have been married for over 10 years to my best friend. I am head over heels in love with him. He always supports my crazy "thrifty adventures". We have a lot of fun together.

I was raised on a small dairy farm. Where I learned very young, the value of hard work and how to be thrifty in all areas of life. Growing up our meals were made from scratch. Only on special occasion would we get name brand cereal, chips, or any other fancy treats. Now that I am a Mom with my own budget, the basic foods always comes first. I too make most of our meals from scratch and take pride in feeding my family a well balanced healthy diet.

I enjoy seeing how far I can make our budget stretch, and when I take the time to match sales with coupons I am able to get all those "fun & fancy" items that would other wise be out of my budget. Being thrifty has always been a way of life for me, but it has also become a real joy.

Regift Exchange….thrifty Chirstmas idea

gift photo

Thanks to Megan who sent me this wonderful idea,

This time of year many of us gather to exchange gifts or cookies.  With my group of childhood friends, I suggested that instead of our traditional cookie exchange, we do a “regift exchange”.  Everyone was to bring a new gift for a man, woman or child.  It didn’t matter the dollar value, it just had to be something that was somewhat desirable, just not perhaps, appropriate for the original receiver.  It was so fun to see what everyone brought!  A lot of times moms don’t get a lot or any gifts during the holidays in order to save money but this is a great way for moms to get something new without spending any money!
