Out of all the things the members here have offered in terms of advice, support, counsel and criticism, what have you personally benefited from? And do you remember specifically who the member was that offered that advice?

Taken my lunch to work all week, so I don't have to go out and spend a fortune on fast food

Shopping at thrift stores and consigment stores because I want to, instead of because I have to

What is your favorite store in which to find bargains?

To always pay yourself first

What is your favorite frugal meal?
Fresh garden salad
