Hello, and welcome to "goddess of thrift", a blog that focuses on strategies to save money in order to have more money for things that matter. My grandiose nickname came from a friend of my son, and it made me laugh, so I decided to use it. While I claim no supernatural powers in saving money, I have learned many strategies over the past 20 years or so which work for mere mortals, and have served me and my family well. I hope you will find them useful, too.
One of the areas where I've learned to save a lot is in grocery shopping. We buy paper products and feed 3 adults and a 40-pound dog on an average of $160.00/month. Among other things, I'll share some of my grocery-savings strategies in the months ahead.
I would also love to hear from you! If you have any thrifty ideas, or comments about a specific post, just click on the word "comments" below that post to share your thoughts with the rest of us.
