About This Blog

Four years ago, I started my life over. New city, new job, new friends (and old ones, too), new apartment...everything was exciting. However, for the first time in almost six years, I was relying solely on myself to pay my bills, buy my groceries and keep myself afloat. To say I ran into some problems early on is an understatement. Knowing that admitting defeat and moving to my childhood bedroom was not an option, I decided to implement some tough love on my finances and locked my credit cards in a safe (where they remain to this day), placed myself on a budget and haven't looked back. That's not to say it's been smooth sailing. I've had to become extremely creative to live the way that I want to live and buy the things I want to buy on my budget. I've done it, though, and it's been extremely rewarding to prove to myself that I could start over and succeed. Blogging has always been a creative outlet for me, and I love sharing the deals that I find with others. I hope you enjoy this glimpse into my thrifty life and learn some tricks to save you some cash along the way!
