5 Ways We’ve Saved Money This Week 49
Some days it feels like I have to constantly chant our motto: #yearofno, #yearofno, #yearofno. Other days it’s a relief to use #yearofno as an excuse to not make a decision. (The answer is no, obviously.)
It’s September, which means we’ve been at this for over 8 long months. The finish line is still in the distance, so it’s going to take a lot of motivation to keep going!

5 Ways We’ve Saved Money This Week 47
This has not been our most money saving week ever. Going back to school is always expensive, and as the kids get older it only becomes more costly.

I also took care of some home maintenance things this week. It was good to get those things done, but it made the budget feel extra squished.
5 Ways We’ve Saved Money This Week 46
It’s already another Frugal Friday again! This is the 46th edition of the 5 Ways We’ve Saved Money This Week series. That means that there’s a long list of ways to save on this site. You can read through the entire series here if you are looking for extra money saving tips.
I’ll confess that I’m not a morning person. So getting back into the habit of getting up for school is hard. Being tired is a spending trigger for me. The temptation to grab a pricey pop (Coke, soda…what do you call it?) on the go is strong. But I’ve been avoiding it! That makes me feel like Superwoman.
5 Ways We’ve Saved Money This Week 45
Happy Frugal Friday! I like to spend Fridays tracking some of the ways we’ve saved money over the past week. Writing this series has held me accountable, and I consider it one of the important methods we’ve used to pay down debt in our #yearofno. If you like, you can read through the entire series.
School is back in session for us this week. I’m not sure if that helps me save money, since the kids are always need money for something school related. But at least we have a routine again.
