To a Happy, Healthy and Frugalicious 2010!
Filed Under Building Wealth | Comments Off
While we’re sort of closed for renovation, I wanted to repost last year’s New Year message, and let you know we’re working hard to make YOUR 2010 the most bargain-filled ever. Be back soon!
Happy New Year, dear readers, and I hope you like the new word I am using. Frugalicious is the term for living the lifestyle of the rich and famous on an ordinary person’s budget, and we’re going for it big time in 2009. But first, a confession: I am so embarrassed — in the frenzy of the holidays I went to the supermarket and paid full price for everything! I felt like I was cheating you guys by not living the lifestyle I am teaching you, but I guess the lesson there is that sometimes, time and sanity win out over bargains and thriftiness. (Not always, not often, but sometimes!) Anyway, sorry for being off track, and watch in the next few days for my special report on starting the new year with some great new money-saving habits. Wishing you all a happy, healthy, prosperous 2009. See you soon.

Okay, just cause you’ve procrastinated, as I have in writing this xmas eve post, doesn’t mean you have to arrive empty handed tonight. Here, a few more Quick Fix Gifts:
1) Something from home. Feel free to regift, but do it with class. Re-pot a holiday plant, print and frame a personal picture, fill a pretty basket with food, trinkets, craft supplies or other themed ideas to appeal to your recipient. Wrap merrily and be on your way.
2) Something on line. Print out a gift certificate from anywhere — a local or national chain spa or restaurant, Restaurant.com (code SANTA for 80% off), a gym class or workout, or try Cloud 9 Living for that special something.
3) On the way. Stop at any open restaurant or store for a gift card. Make sure it’s something your recipient will enjoy. Also good is a monthly transit cards in some cities, or for fun, gift cards from movie theaters, and scratch-off lottery tickets. Print out a greeting card to show that you thought about it before you left the house!
4) From the oven. Supermarkets are still open. Pick up some ingredients for home-baked goods, and package prettily. We have a new favorite here, a low-fat, low-cal fruit trifle. Bake an fat-free angel food cake, break into pieces and line the bottom of a big glass bowl. Pour in freshly prepared instant pudding to fill in the spaces. Follow with a layer of fruit, a layer of sugar free whipped topping, and repeat, using a different fruit. A guaranteed hit for just a few dollars. And you get to enjoy it too.
5) From the Heart: Donations to charities, especially those that the recipients care about, are always appreciated and really can make a difference in the world we share. Live, love and laugh with the people in your life. Have a wonderful holiday, and may all your gifts be filled with love.
Merry Everything, and Happy Always.
We’ll be taking off for the next 2 weeks or so to revamp our site and clean up our homes. See you after New Years. Have a happy, healthy and safe holiday season, and here’s to a FRUGALICIOUS New Year!
