Hello all! I decided to jump in to the land of blogville...to share tips and links on ways to stretch a buck when payday is a week away! I've been married to my guy for just over 20 years and we've seen times of plenty and times we didn't know if we were going to make the mortgage payment. I'm a card carrying member of the 'Sandwich Generation'. I've got three girls ages 14,12, and 2 and my mom as well! That's 6 in all...plenty of mouths to feed!
