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 :)

1/20 Expressions
Frugal deeds for the day: This evening, after work, I stopped at the mall and picked up this Month's freebies for the Bath & Body Works club - I got to pick-out anti-bac soap, anti-bac pack, and anti-bac pack holder. All would have cost $7 plus tax. Then to Starbucks at Barnes and Noble - got a B1G1 Tall Latte with coupon, membership discount and a promo gift card - cost me $0 out of pocket. I forgot to mention earlier this week, our neighbor brought over 1/2 of a small cake (her daughter is getting married) - the cake was yummy - and very bad for anyone on a diet :) I cut out 4 pairs of underwear out of t-shirts we no longer want. Tomorrow is my "off" day, so, I plan to sew them. I think we need a clothes moratorium - while looking for the t-shirts - I found several items of clothing that my daughter bought with tags. I also found a few things I was looking for too. Next stop for decluttering - clothes.
