Frugality.
Penny-pinching.
Thriftiness.
Frugal living tips.
Oddly, for most people, these words don’t bring to mind a lifestyle full of joy and freedom.
Instead, they bring to mind images of Scrooge and dreary, turn-of-the-century London slums. (Not sure why that last image comes to mind, but it does. Possibly from reading Oliver Twist.)
However, for those of us who do live lives of frugality, penny-pinching, and, yes, thriftiness, the reality is quite different.
