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 :)

11/6 Expressions
Frugal Deeds: Yesterday, I ran a bunch of errands. I used a lot of coupons too. Took drycleaning in with a discount coupon. Got free coffee at BK - no coupon required. Got two free sandwiches with coupons. Got a free pack of pansies with purchase and a coupon. Bargain of yesterday, French Manicure set from Dollar Tree - $1. Today, we plan to cover lunch with a coupon and a gift certificate - no out of pocket. My daughter and I plan to hit the thrift stores - to look for gym clothes and there are a few items on condo inventory I hope to find before resorting to a traditional store. Need drinking glasses, cooking spoon, Dutch Oven, etc. and I hope to find them. We will probably go down next month to do the minor maintenance and replace inventory items - working mini-vacation for us. I still have two Restaurant.Com gift certificates to use.
