Another great frugal blog

I was researching how to reuse milk jugs and came across this great blog. Check out how to have "a fabulous life on a frugal budget" at www.thriftyjinxy.com and see the great ideas. There's recipes, freebies, tips, coupons, rebates and giveaways. Gotta love that!

America's Cheapest Family

I've seen the Economides on the web and once on television, but I've never really looked on their website until today. It has a good reader base with many suggestions. Their blog is easy to read and informative. It is, all in all, a good resource. May I suggest if you haven't checked them out yet, to do so. I'm sure their books are easily obtained at the library if you want to read more about what they do to stay frugal.

Looking towards Retirement

No matter if you're 25 or 55, retirement is something to think about.
Here are four quick suggestions from Yahoo Finance:
1- Don't start Social Security Benefits too early.
2- Know how much retirement savings you'll need.
3- Don't start using your retirement funds now to meet your current needs.
4- Stay in shape (have a BMI of 25 or less).
