    Just curious who else is living super frugal

    i guess i was lucky in the way that when my cars would break, my brother would fix it for me, but i had to get in and get my hands dirty and help. so i was conditioned to look at car problems as how can i fix it as opposed to where can i find a mechanic. also i have taken my car to get a price...

    Just curious who else is living super frugal

    i cook on our wood stove every chance i get. i figure if it was good enough for my grandma then it's good enough for me. plus i like the idea that I'm giving the gas company the silent finger. some day when we get our house together I'm going to get a real wood stove range. :)
