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 :)

6/11 Expressions
Frugal deeds for the day: As far as buying anything to re-sell at Plato's yesterday - it was a bust. But, my daughter purchased 5 pairs of jeans, 2 casual shirts and 1 dress shirt for around $25. The jeans, she is going to cut-off for summer shorts and embellish, re-design herself. The price of shorts are really high - especially ones made out of jean material. From what we saw - they start at just under $20. Today, I have spent most of the day catching up on sleep. Shortly, my husband and daughter are stopping at Staples to use the $3/3 coupon and hopefully, each will get something free. Then they plan to stop at the grocery store to get bleach - part of the re-design for a couple of pairs of jeans. At one thriftstore, the jeans were $1, at the other, they were $4. We know which one we will be going to in the future for jeans. Mail call: Garnier skin product sample, and free magazine. Garden - I was excited to see that Zuchinis are forming - I know people complain about too many Zuchinis - but, I don't think I could have that problem :)
