    How is your service and where do you live, if you don't mind me asking.

    Yikes! I currently use my telephone for volunteer work but am looking at an internet based home phone for that.... other than for that I rarely call and don't text all that much either. I use my phone for maps... it just seems like I'm not using it all that much to be paying $50 a month!

    Which company do you use for your cell phone and do you just have talk or text/internet also?

    I just spend $500 to pre pay my phone for the rest of the year... at $50 a month. Who do you use for your cell phone?

    I was wondering what they were eating, saw the picture on the side where it shows recent images.

    I rarely ever pick up ground beef.. I would if I could find it raised locally but it disgusts me that my ground beef contains meat from 100's of cows! No wonder there is meat bourne illness, any of the MANY cows in your ground beef could carry it! Just grosses me out!

    I have never seen clearance pasta at my grocery stores. I will only pay $1 to $1.50 for it though. I get cereal for $2-$2.50 but again it isn't clearance just on sale. I've even seen cereal on sale for $1 for a healthy brand!

    I will have $2.50 a day but since there is 2 of us that makes it easier... It means $5 a day, which means buying things in "bulk" won't completely destroy the budget! I'm definately planning a lot of rice, beans, etc to go along with cheap meats, veggies, etc.

    Dang Lady! I can tell you feel strongly on the subject. For the garden this year my plan is to lay newspaper down then put compost/soil on top of it, than seeds than more compost/soil. With our soil I think raised flower/garden beds are the way to go. We are also looking at investing in having...

    I'm excited to try the SNAP challenge starting February. I think I'm going to start doing budget shopping trip blog entries after the SNAP thing.

    I would LOVE for you to come teach me how to raise veggies! I have a brown thumb, and I don't get it because some people just plant seeds and they grow. I planted many seeds last year and while I got some vines no veggies ever grew on them. On top of my lack of gardening skills I'm working with...

    The amount per person per day would depend on your area. For us its actually $3.50, so I'll be doing $25 shopping trips. The water thing is just sick! Who does that!!! As far as not knowing how to cook... I 100% agree. I'm 21 and all my mom taught me was how to make cookies, and deviled...

    We just have chickens and my silkie just stopped laying so I don't expect any eggs in Feb anyway (the other hen hasn't started laying yet, and while my husband wants to eat the rooster I'm still not on board with that).

    Just curious who else is living super frugal

    It sounds interesting to me, but not so much fun. My goal is to prove that you can eat healthy on that budget... but I am still working on eating healthy and still learning how to cook! I'm doing it in February so hopefully I can try some cheap recipes out between now and then, since we won't...

    Just curious who else is living super frugal

    Since this is a frugal post I thought I would issue a frugal challenge! I write my own blog in addition to being a urban chicken keeper... its about being frugal, being green (as in Eco friendly, I can't grow a plant for anything although I'm going to try again this year for a garden!), and DIY...

    I guess if I printed at the library or at school this might be cheaper... but I don't mind the $7 subscription, it supports my local economy =) I don't read the papers but we usually use them. We have a worm bin so many go in it, and I had a friend who needed them to wrap her things because she...

    Im making my own dish and laundry detergent so we will see if that saves me money. Im also going to start making my own spray cleaner and floor cleaner if its possible to refill a swiffer bottle! Right now I am like you. I scour the sales ads and I coupon as well. With coupons I saved over $14...

    Just curious who else is living super frugal

    So I'm confused. Where do you live? Someone else suggested you lived in the barn but there wouldn't be running water in it... I think your post sounds like you and your mom are on the right track though. You sound mature for your age especially to be posting here about being frugal, most 17...
