Frugal Friends’ Friday!

“Use it up, wear it out, make do or do without!”

Happy Friday and Happy Weekend! Here’s to each weekend getting warmer and warmer

“Don’t waste money buying the foaming hand cleaner refills, which are mostly water.  Once you have the dispenser, make you own refill buy squirting some liquid hand soap in the bottom, and add water (only to fill line on back of dispenser).  Shake. Let foam settle and you’re ready to go.  I haven’t measured amounts–I just put in enough liquid hand soap to cover the bottom of the dispenser.”   Patti, Wakeman OH

-Great idea! You can also find these foam soap dispensers sold separately- So keep your eyes open this spring at the garage sales! If you coupon, you might be able to score a foaming soap dispenser (full of soap for FREE.

“Ditch paid TV = more family time and less $. Get movies and books at the library instead or try www.hulu.com. There are tons of free tv shows there – new and old! We don’t even miss the cable!!” – Amanda, Kipton OH

- Oh my goodness why have I not done a post on this yet? We don’t have cable either! We watch shows a day after they air on Hulu.com…though we have to watch them on the computer. We also belong to Netflix (the 2nd most basic suscription) and get free instant movies from them that we stream through our game system onto the TV. We basically pay $11 a month for TV entertainment! There are even ways to stream Hulu.com onto your TV. Just google it and see if your computer and TV are compatible. (Honey, is there anything you’d like to add?).

Thats it for this week- And if you do anything that saves money for your family this week, be sure to let me know. Your tip could be featured in next week’s Frugal Friends’ Friday, but more importantly, you’ll be helping all of us save a few more pennys. That is awesome! Just email me at frugalmegan@gmail.com. We’d love to hear from you!

Here’s to living- happier, healthier, more FRUGAL lives!
