Frugal Link Love

2007-05-01 03:11:01.957809+00 by meuon 1 comments

Frugal Fru-Gal Lou should be working on her Chemistry finals... Instead she's becoming the Queen of free stuff and discounts. Money made on the site is sending her to school, as is the money saved. But the interesting part is how Lou reconciles the frugal world with her personal ethos:

....free Diet 7UP taste test challenge kit. If you don't want to bother since soda pop isn't good for you anyway, read: it will taste gross.

And:

...are giving away free copies of An Inconvenient Truth on DVD by Al Gore. Just don't sell it on ebay, jerk.

No, you can't even give them away, let alone sell them on eBay. Oh, wait.. they ARE for sale on eBay.

She WISHES money made on the site were sending her to school! Maybe one day...so far, it could buy a piece of gum...but that can change. It definitely saves her money - she gets lots of free samples and says she never has to, for example, buy shampoo (and that's not 'cause she's not showering!!)
