Welcome! I created this website as a place to share and exchange ideas for living frugally and well in the Twin Cities metro area! Whether you’re in the midst of a major financial makeover or are just looking for some ways to save money, there’s helpful information for you here!
If you’re new here, I suggest first checking out some of my most popular guides:
- Twin Cities Discount Guide for Families
- Free or Discounted Admission Programs for Limited Income Families in Minnesota
- Half Price Tickets (great deals on local events and shows)
- Business Directory for Moms (feel free to submit your business listing for free!)
- Kids Eat Free List
- 100 Birthday Freebies
- Month by Month Shopping Guide
Also, I invite you to browse the categories for posts on everything from “Ten Great Buys at ALDI” to reviews like “Sea Life Aquarium at the Mall of America and 6 Ways to Save on Admission.”
Looking for free or low-cost family activities in the Twin Cities area? Check out the Deals & Events Calendar which is updated regularly.
I also have EXCLUSIVE deals you won’t find anywhere else, such as the lowest-priced tickets you can get at the Crayola Experience at the Mall of America.
I also enjoy writing about & sharing my real-life adventures of mommyhood such as “Ten Things I’ve Learned Since Becoming a Mom” and “Ten Reasons I Haven’t Yet Lost Those Extra 10 Pregnancy Pounds.”
To learn about me, my TV appearances or to reach out, visit my About Me page! I’m always open to working with businesses and brands that are a good fit for my site!
I’ve got many ideas of posts to write but am always looking for suggestions. Feel free to leave comments or contact me if you have any! Thanks for visiting!
