The Beginning

Having recently taken Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University course (which I highly recommend if you haven't taken it already) my husband and I have laid out plans for our financial future. It's wonderful having a goal and a direction, but living it out gets a little tricky sometimes. So, I think, why not make it a fun challenge?
I have long enjoyed fashion, have a growing love for cooking, and LOVE a bargain. While my bargain hunting is nothing new to me, having financial goals in mind only ignites this passion all the more. It went from a fun side hobby, to a lifestyle challenge I willingly accept.

Please understand, this is not a blog about how little money I spend...anyone can do that. Simply live off of Ramen noodles and run your thrift store clothing into the ground if that's your only goal. No, one of my greatest joys is to find unique ways to make my money stretch far but only in ways that you wouldn't notice my frugal spending if I didn't tell you. In other words I find it a fun challenge to spend less, without sacrificing quality.


So feel free to read in on my endeavors as I spend money only where it counts the absolute most. :)
