Hi, all :-)
I'm glad this seems as popular as i hoped it would be (i thought there might be a large crowd of us that fall between the cracks in Frugal and EE group...which is good but still more of a lifestyle choice. That being said F and EE is also a good group.)
For Historical purposes

since a new group needs some 'provable' support

And that's how it started, let's hope it grows and we all have fun

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
