Black Friday savings

By Justin Weinger Leave a Comment

Well, all three children "slept in" until 7 a.m. on Friday. Woo hoo! I ended up saving a lot of money on Black Friday because by the time I got to the local Wal-mart, almost everything on my list was gone. This is a good thing, because the things on my list were not necessities. I did score a few good deals, and we were able to get several strings of LED Christmas lights at Lowes. My hubby is a Christmas lighting junkie, and I'll be thrilled to save on my power bill. Even better- my electric … [Read more...]

A baby experiment

By Justin Weinger Leave a Comment

Well, thanks to a GREAT coupon code from Want Not for $20 off a purchase at BabyCenter.com, I decided to make the great leap into making my own baby food. I bought 8 sets of baby food storage containers. We'll see how it goes! I was interested in making my own baby food with my first child, but never had the time because I was working full-time (it was all I could do to feed myself and my husband!). I think that it will be much more worth the effort now that I have twins and I'm home all the … [Read more...]

Frugal Philosophy

By Justin Weinger Leave a Comment

I have always been a saver. Ever since I was a little kid, I would squirrel away money for things. But after college and a house purchase, it got harder to do things without debt.Debt REALLY bothers me... I mean, I HATE IT. I can't stand owing anybody anything. It's painful for me. I have NEVER carried a balance on my credit cards - that's how much I hate debt.About six years ago (the first time I ever had a car payment and my husband still had student loans), I started reading. I read … [Read more...]

Welcome! Whew!

By Justin Weinger Leave a Comment

Welcome to my money-saving blog! I've been keeping a journal about my experiences with saving money and debt reduction for two years now.... but now that I'm sharing my thoughts with all of you, there's a lot more pressure! Whew! I started my journal because I wanted to be a stay-at-home mom, but wasn't sure how to go about it. The journal allowed me to vent my frustrations and celebrate a few successes while I was still working. I'm currently on maternity leave and would like to … [Read more...]
