Well - not really frugal, but I went to a crop for National Scrapbooking Day and came in below my budget. We are also going to eat leftovers for dinner, etc.

Saturday DH has to work, so DD and I will be at home cleaning, playing and relaxing, etc. Sunday, DH and I are going to The Police concert...

That will definitely not be frugal considering the tickets were expensive, parking will be outrageous...but babysitting is free as MIL and FIL are babysitting. Got to look at the positive....
Update: Well Saturday turned out pretty well. DD and I spent the day w/ my mom and sister at Barnes and Noble (where my mom bought me Dave Ramsey's book Total money makeover) and then we had lunch w/ her which she paid for.

Sunday we had pizza at ILs house before the concert. And yes the concert tickets were expensive (but they were DH's presents for Fathers Day and his b-day) but parking was only $10 and we bought 1 drink to share for $5.50 but the best part was while we were there, we won 4 pairs of tickets to the Columbus Destroyers football game at the end of the month- DH is a HUGE fan, but we usually can't afford to go. THose tickets alone were $30 a piece...and we got them for FREE We are taking ILs so as to repay them for babysitting. So it wasn't too bad frugally speaking!
