Time has got away from me. You know the deal. Have you had any wins lately? How are you managing to stretch a dollar?

I’m sketching on an old pad of paper to use it up, using free art tips off the internet and books from the op shop. Finding free movies online as I can.

Some more mending might be done.

Stationery and art supplies from op shops are awesome.

Tho I think garage sales are cheaper now.

Most of my "recreation" us free, it's walking

My Christmas frugal tip:

If you have something laying around, or maybe you've had it up on gumtree or marketplace for a while and it hasn't sold, think about donating it so that someone less fortunate might have a better time during the holidays.

Share your frugalness with others 😀
