Junior Science Refresher this is science magazine in india Published this article page no 3 There is a lot of advice out there on how to live a frugal life. You can go from anything as simple as turning off the lights when you leave a room to grinding your own flour. There are forums out there where people discuss the way they use the rainwater they collect to do everything from watering plants to flushing their lavatories.
How frugal you are depends on your lifestyle. In my opinion, all it takes to be considered frugal is to think before you purchase something. You can simply turn down the heat at night and save a little on your utilities to be frugal. You can shop sales. You take the time to ask yourself if you really need something.
Being frugal isnt about washing out ziplock baggies and reusing them. It isnt about grinding your own wheat or collecting rainwater. It isnt even about that sweater you didnt buy. It is about thinking before you spend. It is about conserving what you have. It is about saving money and managing your finances.
And every household has different finances. We all have different goals. It may not look frugal to you for my family to have a $50,000 pick-up truck. But when we need it to haul cattle to and from market, it becomes a necessity. We make up for it in other ways. We buy our cattle feed in bulk in order to save money. We take care of what we have so that it lasts longer junior science refresher magazine subscription.
