Hi! My husband and I are planning to be parents before too long. We've been married for almost two years now, and would like to start trying to conceive in a year. Right now we're in the Saving Money stage! I've been reading The Tightwad Gazette and am looking forward to finding more frugal information here.

I like to read about saving money on baby items-- I get excited about the baby joy to come!-- and I learned about mommysavers through the Kimberly Danger's baby bargains book.

Looking forward to getting to know all of you!

Hi! It's Kim here, the one who wrote the book! Glad you're here. It sounds like you're going to be very well-prepared for when you become parents. Be sure to check out our Forget the Joneses forum.... that's where you'll find me most of the time. Welcome!

Thank you for the welcomes!

Kimberly, reading Baby Bargains has made me feel so much less nervous about the cost of having a baby. I went shopping looking for a gift for a friend's new baby, and I got serious sticker shock! I really don't want to have to leave our (future) baby in someone else's care all day. Reading Baby Bargains made me feel significanlty better, as I learned about ways to save big bucks on gear, clothing, diapers, etc. I feel empowered learning to be as thrifty as possible, for now and for the future. Thank you!!
