Favorite Articles of The Week:
- Stop Feeling Sorry For Me – I’m Frugal, Not Broke @ Frugal Dad – Gotta love this guy :) If there’s something on his mind, he’ll say it! And I happen to agree w/ post 100%. A quote – “The fact is, most frugal people are in much better financial positions than those feeling sorry for them.” YES!
- The 10 Dumbest Things To Buy at a Dollar Store @ The Red Stapler Chronicles – I seriously can’t believe some of these things! Home pregnancy tests, sleeping pills, tampons? *shiver* It’s no wonder this post has been read over 167,000 times! Congrats Kevin!
- Cell Phones By The Numbers @ Mobile Maven – A cool infographic on how much more smartphones cost us! $208 vs. $58 for “regular” phones. s-c-a-r-y.
- Frugal Reality TV Show @ DINK’s Finance – If you’ve ever wanted to be in the limelight you frugal bastard you, now’s your time to shine ;) Sign up and give us a shout out if you make it!
- A Fist Full of $100’s @ Financial Freak Show – A pretty funny story of a blogger showing up at Starbucks with $1500 in cash to pay for his coffees. Check it out to see his reasoning.
- Can You List Every Single Item You Own? @ Man vs. Debt – No, I can’t (yet), but I’m working on it! And seeing Adam’s list of 200 is enough to keep me motivated.
- PF Bloggers: Trademark Your Frugal Names Quick! @ Mighty Bargain Hunter – I’m not sure if any of you’ve heard this lately or not, but someone’s trying to trademark the name “Frugalista” and it’s been all the rage around the PF blogosphere ;) This article pokes some fun at it, and renames a handful of our blogs. Perhaps I should register Frugal Is Sexy.com?
