How about a new place just to put moneysaving and thrift ideas? How to make use of things rather then throw them out.How to make that dollar go further, etc.-----------

There are some ideas in the going green thread but it's purpose isn't necessarily to save money but some of the ideas do save money.

Well, right now we could put it in "Make It Easy" or "Try This" section here. But, that's really a great idea to have a separate "room" (is that what they're called?) just for frugal tips. Right now, they're kind of all over the place.

lINDA is right, the ideas under the green forum is somewhat the same. But like you said Lisa, Frugal tips are a bit different. What to do what to do.

Great minds think alike. I hadn't thought of it for a forum topic but NIFTY THRIFTY is on our next magazine front cover. As soon as Gabe and Carol get in, I'll see if we can add it as a category. I will let you know!

Wow, MaryJane, you're really on top of things! We just barely made the suggestion and there you are, ready to run with it. Cool!

What a great idea! It would be so helpful to get ideas especially the way things are right now with economy seemingly scary. Every little bit helps! hugs
