Frugal Fridays

I thought I'd join the Frugal Fridays over at Biblical Womanhood.
Crystal asked the following questions:
1. What is the best resource for frugality you've found (book, magazine, website, etc.)?
I personally am a Dave Ramsey fan, I've read a lot of his books Financial Peace was my favorite and I love his radio show he is a no nonsense kind of guy and I like that.
2. What is the best deal you've gotten recently?
My sencond hand store find I posted a couple of weeks ago called Penny Pinching, (scroll down a little, sorry new that the blogging thing.)
3. What is your best idea for a creative and inexpensive gift (I was specifically thinking this might be helpful for those who still are looking for some last-minute Christmas ideas!)?
Well I don't celebrate christmas so you can't get more frugal than that, but when I do give gifts I like clutter free gift so it's usually food. Just yesterday I mailed a package to a lady with a broken hip who is laid up for a while. It contained an inexpensive coffee mug from a discount store a variety of tea bags out of my every grow tea supply and a box of chocolate cover almonds with a little note. Not much but just enough to know someone is thinking and praying for her while she is recuperating.
HAPPY FRUGAL FRIDAY!!!!!!!!!!!


For those of you wondering why we don't celebrate christmas it boils down to Duet. 4:2. We take the KJV as the pure word of God and strive not the add or diminsh from how he commands us to worship him.

Great on sharing why we don't celebrate Christmas I thought of doing a post on that same thing I'm going to try and get to it this week I don't think many people read my blog but maybe someone will get some insight from it.

I am terrible! I didn't even think of saying it like you do. I edited my blog to put in a link to your's. Hope you don't mind. I have to say, it is nice not having to do anything for Christmas. I am making my grandma a book like what we made for Grandma E. and I was calling all of my aunts. They were all sooo busy and I completely forgot why. hehehe...I definitely don't miss that at all!
