This is it! I am taking the plunge and inviting readers and people on the Cecil County Discussion Forum to join me in starting a “frugal club”. Here is an article from Wisebread about what a frugal club is:

The author gives some great ideas on what a frugal club could do. I envision it as a place to talk about how to save money in particular areas, or talking about what stores have what good deals and maybe doing bulk purchasing of food/goods. I like her ideas for “field trips” and swaps. We could have monthly swaps of things. Maybe one month it is kitchen and dish ware. The next month we could swap toys and kids stuff. These are just my ideas. I am excited to hear other people’s ideas and get this off the ground!
If you would like to join send me an email from the web site or post a comment. In it let me know a good evening of the week for you to meet and what library branches you are willing to travel to. I will take care of getting the room reservations. Bring your ideas on what our frugal club should include in its activities. Tell your friends and see if they want to join. I will also post something on the CCF Discussion List.
