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.

Thrifty Halloween Craft Idea for kids

craft2Thanks to Melinda for passing this along,

I saw your idea for a Halloween craft/treat, and was reminded of a (non-edible) craft my girls got to do at a recent Halloween activity.  You just take q-tips, a piece of paper cut like a skeletal head, and some glue, then make a skeleton by dipping the ends of each q-tip in the glue and arranging in a skeleton position.  Both my 3yo and my 18mo/old really enjoyed it!

I have to tell how much I love it when my readers pass along their thrifty ideas.  I love seeing what others moms are doing, so if you have a thrifty project, recipe, craft or tip feel free to pass it along!  If you have photos to go along with it, that makes it even better!
