I did make everything i wore, even panties and bras. My house was destroyed along with food and clothing and antiques bought so cheaply. I intend to start sewing again since my machine is now where i can even get to it.<br /><br />We bought a new car and sold it seven years later with 7K miles on it. It was exhusband's idea. The dealer was shocked to know the odometer was correct. We usually bought used car. Having a mechanic in the family is really great. Well, the car was not new. It had 1K miles on it as a demonstrator or something. <br /><br />I have been able to give away food because i do stockpile.

I know that we are far better off than those who question us about not being flashy or not spending money on certain things. We do what makes us happy.

I belonged to a huge national couponing message board at the time and I knew that many of those couponers were just trying to get out of debt, support their families & when the recession hit, help support extended family & friends. TLC ruined all that for us.

And we'd all be a lot happier and better off financially if we lived below our means and did what made ourselves happier.<br /><br />I've always said if you use a credit card/payment plan to buy something(that you can't afford to pay off right now)you don't actually own it.<br /><br />Well said.slugmamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12728856166374248591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1631833544468244851.post-39984139185120595142019-08-26T10:39:54.139-07:002019-08-26T10:39:54.139-07:00I dislike those couponers shows also.
