Frugal Friday - Week In Review

by Michael Nolan

In an effort to share the most frugal information possible in the shortest amount of time (yeah, I’m frugal with that too!), Fridays will henceforth be known as Frugal Fridays, and they will feature my Week in Review. Each week on Fridays here at Frugal Mania, I will share with you the best tips, tricks and ideas from frugal maniacs all over the web.

Festival of Frugality
This week’s festival #125 is hosted by Quest for Four Pillars, and is entitled “Save Some Money If You Are Rich”. It is entirely worth the click if for no other reason than to see the French maid. That’s all I’m sayin’ about that.

The Fine Art of Haggling
Sharon aka The Frugal Dutchess shared a great primer on haggling to get the best deals. Not at yard sales, but at department stores! I can’t wait to try some of these.

Frugal and Green
The Frugal Babe shares ways to be frugal and help save the environment at the same time.

CVS Extra Care Bucks
I can’t tell you how much of a relief it was for me to find Living Almost Large and her post “CVS Extra Care Bucks Explained”. If you shop at CVS, you’ll like it too.

Coffee Grounds
The beautiful Sara Noel of Frugal Village shares several ways to make productive use of that muddy mess left over after you finish your morning pot cup of coffee. There are several ideas here that I had never imagined, and I think about coffee a lot!

That’s it for this week’s Frugal Friday! If you have a frugal tip or a frugal website you’d like to see featured at Frugal Mania, leave me a comment!
