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 :)

9/25 Expressions
Frugal deeds for the day: This has been a "winning" 24 hours for me :) I won a pair of concert tickets - so, we are going to try to make a weekend of it during that week. I also cashed in some swagbucks for a $5 AMAZON gift card. Yesterday, I did the deal on the Bamboo website - posted just about everywhere - and got 3 Bamboo cutting boards for under $7 shipped. I plan to keep one, use one at the condo, and give one away. I also found another $10 off JCP code. I went through mypoints and ordered 2 "quilted" King Sized Shams - "regular" price $55 each - got them for under $10 shipped - they will go to the condo when we do the annual "update"/maintenance. They will add a nice touch. Oh - and no jinxing - but the stock market was very nice to me yesterday :) Still below highs of 3 years ago - but maybe within sriking distance. And my daughter wants to use "her" money tomorrow to get a pair of jeans at the GAP today only between 12-3 PM - 50% off if we say "FLASH" at check-out.
