2008- A Look Back

A look back at 2008- a few key things I rememebr that stand out from last year:

1) money was tight

2)truely began living the Frugal lifestyle- partically out of need/partically because I liked it

3) Too many expensee- not enough income. To fill up the car cost $110 (every week) all of May and June!! UGH!!!

4) Cracked rear axil--too many car problems.. but then a new car (generously given!!)

5) Loving the new car- which in Sept cost $45 to fill up- -by Dec 31st cost $22. to fill up!

6) Loved a free-family trip to Hershey Park at Thanksgiving.

7) Enjoyed a great Christmas with everyone!!



One of my 2008 Favorite Frugal changes-

Stop using paper towels - switched to cloth napkins and dish towles instead (Love this!)In the last year this has saved us $175! And took nothing to make the change- really easy.
