Cool money saving sites + great meals for 5 bucks

So I’m taking the train down to Judiciary Square this morning at Oh-Dark-Thirty to sign in for jury duty and the guy who hands out The Express, which is a free, mini-Washington Post, hands one to me and I discovered an article in the Money Section that I’d like to share with you, Dear Reader.

The article, Fraternity of Frugality, by ANNE D’INNOCENZIO, hasn’t been posted to their site yet, so here goes. D’Inncenzio reports on the growing clout of Mommy Bloggers and how one in particular, Melissa Garcia of Consumerqueen.com has interneticized the whole coupon thing (which I admit Marcy and I were never on top of).

D’Inncenzio goes on to list a number of other money $aving blogs that we wanted to share with you. They are
Couponmo.com
Dealseekingmom.com
Couponcravings.com
Beingfrugal.com
Moneysavingmom.com
And this way cool site by Erin Chase, 5dollardinners.com has a complete listing of meal plans and recipes for $5 and under. 5dollardinners.com has also been cited as the number 5 blog on Top 100 Blogs for the Frugal Gourmet (so this ain’t chopped liver!). Her recipes look so cool I even sent them to our sons. These represent a grab bag of offerings so please let us know what you think of these sites and if you know of others we should share openly and freely.

Thanks,

Rod
