Fall Is Here!!


                                                                           Hello Family

Happy fall. You know what that means spending money time. It's Halloween candies and costumes which means money, Thanksgiving big dinners and high food bills more money and the Christmas season meaning even more money spent with gift giving and party giving. Yes, this will be an expensive season for cheapskates/frugal people like us. That's where the saved coins, coupons and yard sales come int to play. Coupons and store opening offer discounts on the things that you need to purchase e for the holidays, coins saved is also for that reason and yard sales are for gift giving. You don't know how many yard sales I have been to this year that I have seen decorations cheap. I even purchased a few gifts myself to give away that were new and pretty cheap.

You just have to be creative and think outside the box. I know inflation and the high cost of everything is killing us. But think smaller and more thoughtfulness and less expensive.

                          Well that's a cheapcheetah two cents for today. 

                                     Happy Fall & Save that Money

How Much Is Fun?


                                                        Hello My Cheap Cheetah Family

How much does fun cost? Being a cheapskate, it cost me a lot this past week. I went to Atlantic City to gamble then visit family. We ended the trip in Cape May. The Hard Rock Hotel &Casino in Atlantic city for 3 nights cost me $70 bucks. The food and mics tips  cost me $150 for two people for the stay at the casino. Transporation getting there and going home cost me $120 that's bridge tolls and gas. Family dinners cost $100. Cape May buying sweets treats cost me about $20 bucks. So, all that adds up to money, but it was well spent because I did it with family and I had fun. Sometimes being a cheapskate/frugal person  is not worth it if it interferes with your family and fun life. What do you think? Oh, yea I made my money back gambling plus extra.

                            Have A Great Cheap Cheetah Week & Save That Money!

Happy Holiday



                                                                     Hello Family

It's the holiday weekends and back to school time. Being a cheapskate/frugal person did you think about where are you getting the money for the kids and school this year. Here's some ideas that might help you.

1 The coins that you've been saving might not be much but every bit helps when it comes o getting back to school supplies.

2. Take advantage of the sales and going out of  business that stores offer.

3. See what you can use from last year this year for your kids. When it comes to back to school stuff.

4 Yard sales and flea markets are your friends. I've seen tons of school supplies for dirt cheap at these events.

5. See if your community or church/organizations are giving back to school item to the community

6.  Swap with friends and family who have older children or the same age children going back to school has yours for clothing and school supplies.

7. If the child is old enough see if they can't get a part-time job to buy their own supplies they need for school.

8. Shop Thrift Stores: Thrift stores and consignment shops can have great finds, especially for things like backpacks and pencil cases.

9Ask About Student Discounts: Some retailers offer student discounts or special promotions for back-to-school shopping. It’s worth asking!

10 Use a Cash-Back Credit Card: If you use a credit card, choose one that offers cash-back rewards for purchases. This can give you a little extra savings. Has Your Last Resort
