About

Hello!

I’m Missy Frugal. 

Thanks for stumbling your way along to this blog!  Well whatsitallabout then I hear you ask?  A Frugal Wife is a frugal lifestyle blog written by Missy Frugal, a 30-something wife to 1 and mum to 2.

Life has changed for Missy Frugal a lot over the past 3 years.  Marriage, 2 tots, and living on less than half the income before children.  If someone had told her 3 years ago that it was manageable to live on less and be much happier, she’d have snorted in their face.

This blog is about going back to basics; doing what makes us happy and living with less to allow us to have more.  We know what we need by knowing what we want.  A little planning, organisation and budgeting of time, effort and money allows us to achieve and do what we want.

This blog is not about doing without or having to make do.  Oh no, Missy Frugal doesn’t like that thought one little bit!

But it does include money and time-saving tips, thrifty finds, crafting, kids activities and how to live well and creatively without overstretching the pennies.
