Mayhem & I've been living frugally for the last 2 1/2 years so it has become pretty much a way of life. We do the usual buy in bulk, grocery sales, veg garden, pack sack lunches and the like. We cloth diaper Baby Mayhem. (cloth has come a long ways from pins & rubber pants) We use cloth napkins & kitchen rags. Plus I make my own laundry soap-8 gallons worth for about $2. Line dry when I can, vent the dryer into the home when it's cold out to save on heating. Summertime around here there are a lot of free community family oriented events like parades & swimming & library reading clubs. We "rent" movies from the library, or do net flix, rather than paying for dish PPV movies. Eventually I will start making our own bar soap, canning & pickling our own veggies, and baking bread. I love 2nd hand shopping, & searching for a good bargain. I'll think of more later but this is all my phone will let me type out.
