I love hearing everyone's ideas and thoughts about how to be more frugal (CreditCareFree! gives me great ideas, hope to get even more from everyone here!)
Today, I earned a $6.00 debit card which I added to my Amazon account.
I paid for a small Subway sub with my points, so no money out-of-pocket.
Hubby cleans the pool each day, so no $$ spent on an expensive service.
Will use up a .44 and a $1.15 gift cards on a coffee tomorrow, my daughter's and my Saturday ritual. Hey, its money!
What frugal thing did you today?

- Put on my summer clothes, which are all from past seasons (nothing new bought this year so far and I hope to keep it that way!)
- Walked to daycare pushing the sturdy double stroller, which we bought in lieu of getting a car when we had our second kid.
- Took the bus from daycare to work (my job deducts the bus pass fee from my paycheck pretax).
- Bought pastries for the office; I'll get reimbursed, will get credit card points, and got free breakfast out of it as well.
- Brought homemade food for lunch; mixed-bean curry using ingredients we already had in the pantry. 3rd day in a row eating it, so not very exciting, but cheap!
- Husband will pick up some of our groceries at Target using the Red Card for 5% off, plus use some coupons. We plan our meals and grocery list on a spreadsheet and buy according to which stores have the best deals on each ingredient; we estimate prices for each item on the spreadsheet to ensure we don't go over our weekly budget.
- Will cook dinner tonight with what's in the kitchen: a simple tofu and bell pepper stirfry over rice.
