    Cheap (or Free) Date Night Ideas

    February 4, 2020 / 0 Comments

    No matter how long you’ve been in your current relationship, I bet you’ve gone on a few (dozen… or hundred) dates with this person. Some have probably been super fancy and impressive. I’m here to tell you that not all dates can come straight from a Hallmark movie. When you’re on a budget or just don’t want to give into lifestyle inflation, cheap date night ideas are a must.

    What’s a Budget Date? Why You Need Them as a Couple

    January 21, 2020 / 0 Comments

    Making budgets is just so romantic. I love it when my husband talks those numbers to me. SAID NO WIFE EVER. But yet, we need to talk about money. It’s hard to talk about money when you can’t seem to find the time. Maybe your jobs or kids get in the way of real, deep conversation about your finances.

    How We Never Fight About Money

    January 14, 2020 / 2 Comments

    Money. It’s the thing that buys us food, clothing, and shelter. Money can be a source of pride or even a source of discomfort. Money can be fought over. But not in our house. I’m about to explain how we never fight about money. We may argue about other things, but our bank account isn’t one of them.

    Today friends, we are going to dive into something a little eco-friendly, a little minimal, and definitely frugal. We're talking about how to shop your own home! No, not online shopping. Shopping from your own belongings that you've already paid your hard earned money for. Things you may have forgotten about, but still have loads of life left.

    Frugal Thanksgiving Tips and Tricks

    November 12, 2019 / 0 Comments

    The end of every year brings a surge of spending in most household budgets. More family gatherings means more food is consumed. The holidays require gifts (by today’s consumer standards) for everyone in your family. And goodness, this Thanksgiving dinner ought to be better than last year! Even though the hope of a frugal Thanksgiving dinner seems out of reach, I assure you that it is indeed possible. My husband and I have hosted Thanksgiving at our home twice now.
