Still thinking

Well I am still thinking on alot of things around the household here.  When I got asked yesterday if I had enough groceries in the house I was almost shocked here totally.  I told the person yes I have enough in the house and not a problem at all since I still have leftovers in the fridge from the weekend here.  The person figured out right quick that I am that cheap around my own household here and liked it.  I had to laugh about it around here since I do alot of the things on the cheap side anyway here and that is how it will go from now on also.  What some do not realize is that I will work and do things in the off peak hours with the power company totally and others reminded me about the gas bill around here also and what I can do to curb that down.  With the fire place that will be fixed by next week around here it will help out totally on that part around here also for that bill.  All I can say is that when you first start going to the cheap side it is hard at first around the household unless everyone is on the same page here for the household.  Alot of it is a team play when you want to go that much cheaper for the household at first and to keep them updated in what you want to try.  When I first started out with the coupons I would tell everyone is that on sale and do I have a coupon for that item at the store here.  Also I started using less of the cleaners and other things for the household while I was at it.  It all came togeather here for me in what to do to save money for the budget then 22 years ago and I have kept alot of it going also from that point.  So now at this point in time here I will do in what I have to here for the household to save money and then some to make a point to alot of folks that do come over and to the one side of the family that tried to push me into spending also while I was there in town.  Now that I am fully thinking here and knowing that I have to do in what I have thought of to try it for the household to be cheaper here to see if it all works out for myself and the household.  The nice thing about it all is that since I am alone most of the time here I can try new things out and see if they all work for me.  When they do I let others know in what is going on so they can see in what I am doing here and go from there also for the household.  When I first started out using less of the soaps in the household some did not get it at first untill they all seen in what was going on totally and how much I was streaching out here.  It has worked out on that end along with the other cleaners for the household here also.
