Dear Readers,
The challenge to save money is going into full swing now. We've had a $400 + electricity bill and a car repair bill attack our shoestring budget. I think I'll go back over some of my thrifty posts and remind myself of the ways the LORD has provided in lean times and how I've used it up, worn it out, made it do, and done without in the past. It's good to remind ourselves and our children of how God has provided.
God bless!

Here's how my family has been thrifty lately.
Here's how my family has been thrifty lately.
- I bought one big container of Spring Mix lettuce for $4 at Aldi on Monday. We ate salad every day all week.
- Popcorn for snacks
- We were given some Nutrigrain bars. They're helping fill tummies between meals and making quick breakfasts.
- We were given a whole bunch of eggs. I lost count of how many. We've eaten them for breakfast and boiled them for snacks and put them on salads.
- Remember the $3 that my husband spent on wrapping supplies at the yard sale? Here's the first batch of things in the box. These are cellophane that has not been opened.
- I'm making some interesting meals from on-hand items.
- My Emily removed a broken belt attachment from her dress. It saved the dress at no cost.
Before
After
- My Amy was given a gift card. Since she doesn't drink coffee, she decided to use it for a giveaway on her blog.
My Amy's giveaway ends 8/22/18. |
