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 :)

11/15 Expressions
Frugal deeds for the week: Tomorrow - is an office luncheon. Very reasonably priced place and I signed up for their on-line "club" - they sent me a coupon good for a large apptizer. I will be sharing that with the table. I earned enough points on Swagbucks for another $5 Amazon gift card. Since I made a donation to charities - to be deducted from each of my paychecks - I get to take the "proof" into Costco this Friday, Saturday, & Sunday for free admitance, and get entered into a drawing for prizes. Also, there are incentives to join. I won't be joining since it is "out of my way" - and in general, I am not a bulk shopper. But, I will be sure to make it once this weekend. Also the Art Museum is opening a new building, so, they will be open free to the public this Sunday - lots of fun. Another speciality museum in the area sent us an invitation to see Harry Potter in the IMAX, small popcorn and drink for $5 - next weekend. Need to chase the rental agent around for the house she re-rented for us starting this month - still haven't seen the rent check? I received a rebate check, coupon for a free 20 oz Coke, and 2 Gift Certificates from Mypoints in the mail today.
