Weekend Roundup Edition #2 - Frugal Tips, Credit Cards, Baby Steps

27. July 2008, 7:32 UhrGeneral FinanceDana Joseph

Time again for the weekly roundup. First I would like to welcome the newest member of the Frugal Blog Network - Kelly from Almost Frugal. This past week she shared a great list of frugal tips in “The ABCs of Frugality: 26 Key Frugal Concepts“. Shanti hosted the Festival of Frugality with a “Frugal All Over” theme. Frugal Babe writes how credit cards can be your friend. Andy from Tight Fisted Miser shares his viewpoint on Dave Ramsey’s baby steps.

This week’s Carnival of Personal Fiinance was hosted at Taking Charge with a baseball theme. My top picks from the carnival:

Saving Advice shares a great investing hack - he bought Apple stock instead of the new Apple 3G iphone.

Money Under 30 lists 5 steps to take in saving for your first home.

Broke Grad Student writes Everything I Need to Know I Learned After College.

As I mentioned earlier, this week’s Festival of Frugality was hosted at Antishay Ventenne. Here are my favorites from this past week:

David at My Two Dollars wrote a great article on saving money by borrowing stuff versus buying it. I’d like to be able to borrow kid’s toys - they grow tired of them so quickly.

Christian Personal Finance writes 10 things worth spending more on.

Yielding Wealth shares tips in 5 ways to increase your savings.
