I will cut costs and save in many places, but I won't compromise in others. I've found over time that one place I'm willing to spend a little extra is on good quality chicken cutlets. I'd rather pay a bit more a pound and not have to throw out a bunch of icky stuff after trimming. Of course, if I find the chicken tenders on sale that's great. I guess what I'm saying is that, for me, being frugal in some ways means being able to be a little more frivolous in others!(For example, last year I put away my coupon savings and ended up with enough after a few months to buy a new computer when my old one died.)Mom2furhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09919967314390699344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30488975.post-25912658788064184282008-01-18T11:35:00.000-05:002008-01-18T11:35:00.000-05:00Exactly Kim!
