We are a family of three in transition. We spent years being frugal and are now at a crossroad. We'd like to retire from our day jobs in two years or less. Our retirement goals are to provide our daughter with the best education she desires; travel; and find new careers - perhaps part-time that we really enjoy. I hope to post both "frugal" and "personal finance" information. NOTE: I am not a professional on either subject. My posts are purely entertainment :)

1/15 Expressions
Frugal deeds for the day: I work near Earthfare now - and today, a coupon for 24 bottles of water (my husband and daughter drink these occasionally) for free with the purchase of $10 caught my eye. So, at lunch today, I purchased some wild caught salmon, natural kettle corn and the water for .54 after my Tomato bank credits and water coupon. Then after work, I stopped at Rite Aid intent on using my $3 UP reward. I ended up buying 12 double rolls of TP for just under $2.50 after sale and reward. Free would have been better - but I will take it :) So instead of stocking up, I am concentrating on buying what we need. Since I am in decluttering mode and definitely want to sell our house, if not this summer, next summer, I don't need a stockpile to move.
