Trent from The Simple Dollar was able to conduct an interview with Amy. The Tightwad Gazette was and is such an integral part of my frugal life- I thought maybe some of you here felt the same way. I hope it's okay to post this ...

 My older brother gave me the nicest compliment the other day. He told me that I was the only person he knew that could spend 50 dollars at the grocery store and make it seem like 300 dollars. He also said after I blushed and said thanks that I was the only person he knew who would be thrilled at that compliment! LOL:) I found Pat on ...

 Brandy-  I'm more of a lurker than a poster, but I just had to let you know how glad I am for you. It couldn't have happened (finally!) for a nicer or more deserving person. Your positivity in the face of all this adversity is inspirational.  God bless your family! I hope everything goes smoothly.  Jayne

 I love fried egg sandwiches. My main grocery store still has eggs for 99 cents a dozen every 6 weeks or so (I'm wondering if that will change soon.) My homemade oatmeal bread toasted with a little real butter ( I save my real butter for toast only) and one egg it is not only cheap, it's also one of my favorite meals. And for only 75 ...

I've had soda thrown in my face and I am daily ...

 I went to the store early and was able to get ground beef for 1.29 a pound. I bought 10 pounds to freeze. That's a lot of ground beef for me:)  I also got a gallon of milk for $1. I asked the manager if they always mark down the milk in the morning on Tuesdays and he said they usually do, so I might have a great cheap source for ...

 Mr. Yeager did a great job! One thing I liked about this interview, was that Matt Lauer seemed very respectful and even enthused about the idea of frugality. Very nice.

[quote user="Gigi"] I had a friend who described her decorating style as "Early Attic." I would rather use the term "Eclectic."   [/quote]    I call my decorating style "anti-theft". I didn't own a mattress for the first few years of my adulthood and slept on the floor. My roommate ...

I sent this list to my Dad. He is pressuring me to go to law school even though I have no great desire to be an attorney. On the other hand, I think the reality is that most people will never work a "dream" job and a lot of people will never find one they even love.  You can indentify negative aspects of any occupation (admittedly, ...
