THRIFTY THURSDAY with The Frugal Lady: Groceries & More!

The Frugal Lady: A Keeper At Home

Greetings Frugal gals and pals!

The Frugal Lady is back with a bang and starting the new year off with more savings for my readers.  This year, more than ever, it is time to learn good stewardship.  I do not profess to be flawless in this area, but I do have the resources and a passion to bless others with my talents and knowledge in saving for your family and God's blessings.

I have had several friends and family members request to know some of my secrets to savings, especially in the area of grocery shopping, over the years.  This year I committ to blog about and give you all of my resources, tips and secrets . . . that is, if you committ to follow.  A frugal mom is made only out of passion to help her family.  You don't have to be an organizing junkie, a math wiz or an all around super-mom to make this work.  Just a lot of prayer, a little guidance and some planning!  Tah-dah, you will be a Frugal Lady too!
