Money Saving Websites
I’ve been doing a lot of research online about how to save money, and I’ve found a bunch of cool sites and articles. Here are the highlights:
Money Saving Mom - This mom offers very detailed and user-friendly tips for saving at the grocery store, CVS, Walgreens and other stores. She feeds her family of 4 on $35 per week (they eat wonderful food, not a whole lot of canned tuna!). She’s able to do this by working store savings, coupons, CVS Bucks, sales, and other deals. She has two great podcasts on Supermarket Savings and Smart Coupon Strategies.
The Frugal Duchess - Creative money saving tips with attitude. I’ve enjoyed her tips for cutting down on energy bills, make-it-yourself grapefruit skin care, and recession-proof money saving strategies.
Flylady - This is not a money-saving website but a site dedicated to helping users develop routines that will help them get organized and de-cluttered. I’ve found that by doing the baby steps they recommend, I’m becoming more self-disciplined and am developing habits that add structure to my day. That’s the key to saving money.
How to Cope with Frugality Burnout - some good suggestions on the Get Rich Slowly blog.
Could You Stop Spending for a Month? - There are some good articles on MSN Money about saving. I got some good suggestions here.

Hey Steph!
Every Saturday I go to the Brand Library of Music and Art in Glendale and check out 15 CDs, that I listen to and determine if they are iPod worthy. How about a post on all the free crap you can get at libraries, YMCAs, museums, etc?
Love,
Vanessa
That’s a great idea, Vanessa!
