My Favorite Picks from the 117th Festival of Frugality

The 117th Edition of the Festival of Frugality is up at I’ve Paid For This Twice Already. It's a great lineup. Here are a few of the posts that caught my eye.

Uncommon Cents offers a great post that everyone should read before shopping: Frugality in Practice: Discipline and Restraint.

Sound Money Matters tells us why frugal living has become so trendy: Is Frugality in the Air?.

For those of us with home offices, Squawkfox offers: Hooking up a Home Office for Less.

Thanks to the host (I’ve Paid For This Twice Already) for putting together a great festival (with insightful quotes). Excellent job! Thanks for including my post in the mix.

Posts I Liked From Last Week

From a new way to literally flush down money to financial goals for 2007.
here are a few of my favorite posts from other bloggers over the last week:

Money, Matter and More Musings offered this funny and insightful post about eliminating $299 in a toilet/fish tank contraption.


I loved Single Ma's goals for 2007. Instructive, concise and specific!

Blunt Money addressed a topic that is near and dear to my heart right now: clutter busting. I'm going to print out the article and use it as a blueprint for my organization efforts.

And The Simple Dollar offered excellent tips for increasing net worth.
