Anyone have a frugal moment today?

I did and am so excited!

DD's birthday party is next week. I have a $30 budget for the whole party. I was trying to think of an activity that could double as a loot bag / take home gift for the girls. I went to the bead store and bought a ton of beads and elastic string for making their own bracelets. They will love this. Then they can take it home as their gift. Grand total $11! For the activity and the take home gift! :happy dance:

I am working from home today so I have saved gas, lunch out, wear/tear on car, and my morning soda.

Daughter is home today with my husband, so I still have to pay the sitter!

I had to buy gas today. I don't know how frugal you can be with gas but it was the first time in month that is was under $3.00 a gallon. $2.93 at costco. Our activity today was a playdate other then driving it was good free fun.

We picked up a Worlds Greatest Grandpa shirt on cleraance today to give as a gift for next Father's Day, and are planning a game night with a friend or two instead of going out tonight.

I stayed home all day. That's frugal for me, since I didn't have any chances to spend any money.

Frugal is being wise with your money and resources and cheap is forcing everyone else to.
