Frugal February Week 3

February 20, 2021February 20, 2021 The Thrifty EducatorLeave a comment

I will have to say that this is by far the easiest and most painless Frugal February we have ever had. Thanks to a major ice storm (and a snow event right after) we were stuck at home for most of the week. The kids got to play in the snow, eat icicles, and make… Continue reading Frugal February Week 3

Frugal February Challenge

February 1, 2019 The Thrifty EducatorLeave a comment

Welcome to the Frugal February Challenge! For the past 5 years or so, I have been participating in a Frugal February Challenge. It all started when my husband and I decided to attempt to pay our house off in three years (Spoiler alert: we did it in two!) He was working a ton of overtime… Continue reading Frugal February Challenge

Frugal February Week 3 Update

February 24, 2018February 24, 2018 The Thrifty EducatorLeave a comment

This past week has been almost identical to Week 2.  I have only bought groceries and avoided the thrift store all week.  My pantry and freezers are still mostly full, which is surprising because I have not really bought much meat/pantry staples this month.  I think this is because I had a really, well-stocked freezer… Continue reading Frugal February Week 3 Update

This Frugal February has been so easy compared to others for some reason.  This is surprising to me because I have cut my grocery budget in half, so I thought I would feel the pinch a lot more.  I think that maybe my goal of not buying anything new this year, has really changed the… Continue reading Frugal February Week 2 Update

Well this was a pretty low key week for us on the saving money front.  I decided to have my no spend week coincide with the first week of Frugal February to kind of jumpstart the challenge.  So the only money I spent this week was $25 at the grocery store for essential food items. … Continue reading Frugal February Week 1 Update

Today kicks off Frugal February, so I thought I would share with you all of my rules for our household spending this month and why I choose to participate each year. Almost 4 years ago, we paid off our mortgage and became 100% debt free...yay! However, after we paid the mortgage off, I found myself… Continue reading Frugal February 2018
