“75 Frugality Blogs That Will Change Your Life”

Hi all, apologies for my absence this week. It’s a busy week at the office, and I’ve been staying late. I hope to have time to write more very soon!

In the meantime, Rose sent me a link to 75 Frugality Blogs That Will Change Your Life, which includes One Green Generation at #11. :) If you’re of the frugal green variety, there are some great blogs on this list. Thanks, Rose!

Good list but I must complain. I must I must. Cheap Like Me Blog is not on the list that I could see. She has a great blog and has saved my hundreds, no thousands of dollars. (Unsolicited testomonial!!!)

I’ll add another to the list that I discovered from the DoughGirl – Frugan Living . They are making incredible hauls of very clean goods from store dumpsters. It’s unbelieveable. I had no idea. Thanks for posting the link. And take care working late every night!

  Thanks, Katrina! I miss you. :) I feel I haven’t had time to make my blog rounds as often as I like. Good that the business is getting off the ground, but hopefully I’ll have a wee bit more time again soon!
