Frugal Farmhouse

No lights have been on during the day. No spend day 8/15 Well.. the kill-a-watt has taken the back burner to the Christmas rush... Yet again entertainment has been at home. Some other frugal activities going on around the Frugal Farmhouse: -homemade cooking spray -all homemade breakfast, dinners and desserts - made bread crumbs -made HM febreeze -used hand poured candles instead of electricity What were your frugal achievements this week?

So far its been a week of the Super Frugal December Challenge We have mostly ate at home. DBF has wanted to eat out a lot.. I have talked him out of it about 3/4 of the time.. lol No lights have been on during the day. No spend day 4/15 As far as the kill-a-watt I am still reading directions Entertainment has been solely at home, this is great! Still coming up with “Dreams” for the dream book- check back on monday.. This will be next weeks project :) Hope all of your Frugal Challenges are going as planned

Through out the Month of december I will be challenging myself to new frugal lengths. I already do the normal *homemade cleaners *combine errands *make homemade food *no cable *no internet *reusable everything-containers, napkins, etc *watered down just about everything I own! *etc, etc, etc. So were can I cut back even more? there is ALWAYS room for improvement! Here's my plan: 1-only eat from stockpile this month- only allowed to buy milk and eggs 2- NO lights during day- no reason for it! 3- 15 No Spend days. Yep, I said 15! in december! (this one will be difficult, I believe.) 4- Energy Watch 09- I bought a kill-a-watt a few months back at a garage sale (brand new in the package) and haven't gotten around to using it.. 5- very limited entertainment- I'm talking about entertainment that would cost us money. So family time, free community events, etc. are allowed :) 6- track all spending- this will come in handy for the January challenge. 7- Create a dream book- more det...
