Frugalista? I wish...

Am I good at being a frugalista? Uh. No. Do I want to be one? Yes please!! *sigh* I just don't have the knack some people do with coupon clipping/sale matching/rebates, and getting $40 worth of goodies for $2. Oh I try, but with my limited tiny little town with a grocery store and good 'ol Wally World as my shopping options... Well, it's a little tough.


Ha. My definition of finding a good deal? Wandering through the Christmas clearance aisles at forementioned Wally World, finding a box of 12 candy canes for 17 cents. Woohoo!!! And yes I did buy them:) Just cause I don't think I've ever bought anything for 17 cents before:) Ah yes, that really makes me seem like a frugalista, huh?


My favorite thrifty thing to do though is to go garage saleing and finding ugly things for pennies and turning them into something useful and pretty! I love it:)




These pics aren't the most recent of my little guy, but they're the most recent ones on my computer so they'll have to do for now:)

Poor baby, he has to go for another round of immunization shots today:( I pity him so bad!!! But I pity myself almost as much:( I can't stand to see him in pain like that. So to put it mildly I'm dreading it REAAAALLLLYYY bad.

Well I hear the little guy stirring in his crib so I should go and say goodmorning to my little sweetie:)

  1. Heidi, the pictures are great! And I'm a faithful reader, too! I wasn't sure you had given up on posting once motherhood came into full swing. But you're on my Google Reader and I was happy to see you updated this morning! Missed you!

  3. Well I'm happy I found your blog too! I kind of hope that you post more often than once every three months though.;) Your baby IS big! I think Leah is around 11 pounds now at 5 1/2 months. She's tiny but she eats ALOT. I am still nursing though, so maybe my milk doesn't have enough calories to fatten her up!
    I know what you mean about the thrifty-ness thing...I can't do it either. I ALWAYS forget my Huggies coupons when I go to the store...I'm SO bad!
