Lately, on Facebook…

Kelly — Wed, 18 May 2011 09:59:57 +0000

I share a lot of interesting links and articles on Facebook (well, I think they’re interesting, at least!). Here’s what we’ve been talking about lately on Almost Frugal’s page on Facebook: “In Consumer Behavior, Signs of Gas Price Pinch.” How have rising gas prices changed your buying behavior?

Feelings and Moving On

Kelly — Mon, 21 Mar 2011 12:54:07 +0000

I’ve been feeling sad and overwhelmed and tired lately. Mostly because of what’s been happening in the world, but partly because of jetlag and I’ve been working a lot and so my body is getting tired and my fibromyalgia is acting up. I’ve tried to write this post in a number of different ways, over [...]

Greetings from California

Kelly — Fri, 04 Mar 2011 17:06:05 +0000

I’m writing this from my grandparents’ house in California. I’ve been here, along with my daughter, brother and mother, for nearly a week now. It’s been really nice to see my grandmother, especially, and to get to spend time with my family. As on all of my trips to the US, I’ve been stocking up [...]

Frugal Fall Fun

Beth — Wed, 20 Oct 2010 11:59:33 +0000

I think I could have stuck a few more ‘F’s’ in there—like ‘French’ and ‘Family’, but I’m getting a bit carried away with my alliteration. Anyway, I love fall. It’s my favorite time of year for many reasons, one of which is that there are so many great things to do outside. It’s not too [...]

Survey Shows Financial Press and Bloggers are Key Investor Influencers

Kelly — Wed, 24 Mar 2010 08:58:53 +0000

Sharebuilder and ING Direct recently published a survey on the investor sentiment of younger and older Americans. There were some interesting statistics that I thought I would share with you. Forty-three percent (43 percent) of those 21 to 39 years old plan to invest more in 2010 compared to 33 percent of those 40 to [...]
