Welcome to My Blog!

I've decided to write this blog to compile all of my nifty tips, tricks, savings and money making ideas all into one place. Besides being an expert on organized barter, I have helped countless friends and business owners learn tricks to save money on items they need to purchase to just learning how to stretch the almighty dollar. I once turned $2 into $200 and plan to share that story with you down the road. My goal is to reach 500 subscribers and at that time I will share that story with you!

My nickname is Christine the Bargain Queen, if there is a bargain to be found, I will find it! If there is a way to get something cheaper, I will put forth the time and effort to know about it. Additionally, I like to compare products and research things to death before I buy them! From cars and tires to mattresses, etc. I want to make sure I am getting the best value for my money. I'm also a DIY (that means Do It Yourself) kinda gal! I am a single home owner and therefore without the luxury of a spouse's income, I am forced to make ends meet on a modest income. If I can learn how to hang drywall, and spackle, tape and sand it, so can you! I am hoping that this blog will also encourage other single women to learn how to be stronger and more independent! I am extremely fortunate that some of my closest friends and family members are just that - strong independent women. They shop wisely, tackle projects themselves and are always there to lend a helping hand. We share these traits and share our cleverly frugal ideas with one another and so now I am sharing them with you!

Please support this effort by inviting your friends to subscribe to this blog! And if you would like to contact me with a cleverly frugal idea that you would like to see discussed, please feel free to contact me.
