Let me start by saying my life is one giant to-do list. I'm trying to pack 48 hours worth of stuff into a 24 hour period. For every one thing I cross off my list, though, I usually add about 10 more. So it's no surprise that when I sat down and tried to come up with one central thing to blog about, I couldn't do it. I'm always thinking up some new project, researching new places to travel, finding new recipes, etc., etc., etc. But, one thing I found in all my obsessions was the central theme of using coupons, saving money, and bargain hunting.
These days, coupons are all the rage and using them isn't uncool; it's real life and it's necessary. No, I'm not rich, but yes, I do lead a rich life. I do the things I want to do, I go the places I want to go. I literally want to do it all, and that's what I strive to do. I shop, I spend, I save.
And so, in the middle of an October snowstorm in good old New England, The Daily Cheap was born. I hope this blog teaches people how to save money on everything from food to fashion, and how to incorporate thrift store finds and designs into their every day. I hope it inspires people to do whatever it is they have on their list - to take that trip, finish that project, buy that thing you've always wanted - because it CAN be done, even on a budget.
Cross something off your list today!
