Tightwad Tip of the Month

This month is about organization, now I am a pretty organized person, it comes to me easily but my husband on the other hand is the complete opposite. I have to do routine trash pickups on his side of the room because he will just throw it on a table that he has or it “falls” underneath the bed. So as I was reading The Complete Tightwad Gazette, I came across a section about organization. I’ve never personally done this but it seems pretty easy and time saving. Pin It

Whats going on

Hey y'all, its Sunday and man is it hot. Today I just wanted to let y'all know whats going to be going on in this blog. I've decided that I want to make a few series of posts. When im blog surfing some of the things I enjoy most is the sets of series that I see on other blogs, it makes me eager to see that next post, sometimes it makes me feel like a kid who celebrates Hanukkah. So since that's one of my favorite things im going to pass that joy on to you.

The Tightwad Gazette

What can I say about The Complete Tightwad Gazette written by Amy Dacyczyn (pronounced decision), other than it's freaken great. I first heard about it on Dollarstorecrafts.com and they were talking about washing and reusing plastic baggies. While at the time I thought that was a little extreme it sparked my interest and I put in a request at my library for it. Well I recieved it and woo wee is it way too big to read in 3 weeks and it was nonrenewable because apparently it's requested by tons of people, I had to wait 2 months just to recive it. Well I read it to about the third page into the second book (its made of 3 books that were printed with articles from the monthly gazette) then I had to give it back.
