Are Your Frugal Efforts Going Down the Drain?27 Jan 2009 09:00 AM You can get great deals on toiletries with coupons, especially when they are doubled or tripled. I routinely get free toothpaste this way. Dried beans are easier to prepare than you might think, especially if you use your crockpot! Our BJs here doesn't double coupons--lucky girl! Can a Messy Home Make you Spend More?26 Jan 2009 12:00 PM It could be a vicious cycle. Stuff tends to expand to the size of your home. We recently purchased (at the thrift store) a Star Wars play tent for the kids. Now it does fold up, but it would never have fit in our old home which means we wouldn't have purchased it!

The Frugal Art of Canning25 Jan 2009 10:57 AM It generally depends on the product. Without commercial preservatives, your food won't last as long as store bought. I would give applesauce anywhere from 3-5 days. You'll notcie mold start to grow. It might last longer if it is kept in the back of the fridge. Also, avoiding eating from the jar or placing a spoon that has been in someone's mouth will lengthen the time before it spoils. Apple sauce goes quickly in my house, so I haven't tested this theory. Great job getting it canned! Frugal Myth Busters25 Jan 2009 08:18 AM Resting sheets is a myth.

Thanks for sharing. That was a good one! Seek Help Early with Marriage Difficulties25 Jan 2009 06:19 AM pastfirst, I am so glad that things worked out for you. Do you wish you had sought out help sooner, or did things work out for you the way they should have? The Power of the Ex25 Jan 2009 06:17 AM Those are very good points. There is no perfect package. That gets into unconditional acceptance. Thanks for the comment!
