Yogurt.....

This can be a great frugal snack for kids.....usually on sale and coupons can also usually be found......serve as is....freeze for frozen treats or use as a fruit dip.

Year-round.....

saving even $5 a week for 1 year can make for a decent little emegency fund,or vacation getaway....and $5 doesn't necessarily break the bank.

Yogurt

Instead of buying the individual cups, buty the large container of vanilla and add your own fruit etc.

Yard

Maintain it yourself. You can push a mower and do your own pest treatments. It is good exercise and it is even fun.

Youth

If you have any put them to work. They are capable of cleaning, babysitting, doing laundry, mowing the yard. They can earn their allowance instead of having it handed to them.

Year-end

This is the time to watch for sales. Businesses want to get rid of it instead of having to claim it on their taxes.
