It's been quiet around here today. It's been raining cats and dogs so it's been nice to stay in today. I would like to say that it's been a no spend day, but I DID have to run to Dollar Tree and buy a new shower curtain I washed my old one so many times that it finally fell apart when I tried to wash it this morning. So, I did spend $1 today.
Frugal things I've done today:
#1 Found a recipe online for my favorite coffee creamer and made it this morning. It was very good
#2 Searched online today for a cheap alternative for the cleaner that goes into my steam carpet cleaner...white vinegar!
#3 Had leftover Taco Soup for lunch.
#4 Went to the Dollar Tree and walked out with only one item(this is hard for me).
#5 Have homemade pizza crust rising for supper tonight.
#6 Did laundry and washed everything in cold water. However, since it was raining I didn't get to hang my clothes on the line like I'd planned to do.
#7 Plan to stay in the rest of the evening enjoying FREE tv with my family. Oh yeah, DD#2 spend some of her allowence money at the Dollar Tree on a giant word search so the family will probably spend some time on that tonight too. Funny how something like a cheap word search can entertain us for hours!LOL
Hopefully tomorrow will be a no spend day. We are going to church in the morning and that's all we have planned. Most of the congregation goes out for lunch after church but we get into the van and head home for a quick lunch instead. Who wants to spend the whole afternoon in a restaurant anyway?? Well, my kids probably would!LOL
Quiet frugal day

My kids would probably like to spend a day in the resturants too!
