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 :)

6/25 Expressions
Frugal deeds for the day: today, we will do a bit of yard maintenance - with all of this rain - the grass needs to be mowed - and weeds pulled. I am also going to plant my $1 lily and some seeds my daughter found in her de-cluttering adventure. Lunch will be at PF Changs with our double discount - discountd giftcard plus our 10% off with our warrior card. While there - I plan to stop at Bath and Body Works for their semi-annual sale. I love the wall-flowers - but not the price. The refills are $5/2 instead of $12.50 - and I have a $10 off $40 coupon. I will be buyng a year's supply. It is one luxury I enjoy - especially if I can get it for grocery store prices. I also got my $25 Old Navy Gift Card ("free" with credit card points) and there's a 10% coupon on-line - so, I am hoping my daughter can buy ahead for next school year. I also got my Barnes and Noble giftcard (discounted), we have their membership and I have a $5/$25 coupon - I may check them out - I realize it is cheaper to check-out a book at the library . . . but, I may indulge myself :)
