Start Here

Welcome to Family Friendly Frugality!

My name is Heather. I started Family Friendly Frugality because I wanted a way to help others learn how to find great deals and save their family money!

My motto is that if you save wherever you can, then you have more freedom to spend wherever you want!

Does that sound good to you? Alright, let’s get started!

About Me:

First off, if you want to learn more about me in depth…I encourage you to read my About Me page. In short though, I’m a wife and mom of 2 living in the great state of Texas! I started using coupons and shopping sales to save my  family money and it caught the interest of everyone around me. I decided it would be great to have one place to share everything I’ve learned (and am still learning!), so I started Family Friendly Frugality! It’s a mix of everything you could ever want to know, buy or do to live a fun, frugal lifestyle.

About Family Friendly Frugality:

Let me be clear, I teach strategic shopping here. I’m not an extreme couponer and I never will be. A few things I don’t believe in:

  • Clearing shelves
  • Coupon fraud or unethical usage of coupons
  • Putting your family into discomfort due to excessive couponing/stockpiling

A few things I do believe in:

  • Getting the most bang for my buck
  • Maximizing my dollar to the fullest possible extent
  • Enjoying life to it’s fullest!

Let’s Start With Strategic Shopping!

First off, you’ll notice a tab on the navigation bar, specifically devoted to Strategic Shopping! I add to that tab all the time, as I learn more ways to save money…so will you!

Here are some good How To articles to start off with though:

You should also check out my series on Couponing 101 AND Stockpiling 101.

I also encourage you to sign up for my totally free ebook, “Save Money in 7 Days”. My free e-book is free to my email subscribers and will walk you through a week of coupon shopping from start to finish!
