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 :)

3/5 Expressions
Do you send for freebies? I used to "fill-out" on-line forms for all kinds of freebies - now, just the one's we will use - or are "worth" it. Today, in the mailbox, amongst the junque, we got a sample of Chex Chocolate Truffle snack mix - yum! I now make it point to use/eat samples as soon as possible. On another note, now that gas prices are in another "shock" zone for me, I have decided not to drive home for lunch. I pack my breakfast (baked oatmeal divided in ex-sour cream containers - frozen), some healthy snacks, and a lunch. So, I save gas and utilities since I won't be going home to use my microwave, etc. Every little bit helps.
