Final Frugal Friday of July 2026
Each Friday here at Frugal Workshop, I love sharing the frugal wins, quiet savings, and simple strategies that helped us stretch our budget over the past seven days. It’s a gentle look back at the small things that make a big difference.
My Frugal Week
This was a quiet week here mostly spent at home except for Tuesday when I had a tutoring session and spent the evening at the theater.
I made myself a walking track in Dad's workshop downstairs. I spent an hour and forty-five minutes walking on Wednesday morning and had my 10,000 steps in before 10:30 in the morning. It will be a great place to walk when it’s too hot, too cold, or rainy to walk outside. He has other exercise equipment down there, so this makes a good addition.
Other Frugal Things
- Ate all meals at home using what’s here ~ no grocery shopping.- I cut my own hair this week & even got a compliment on it.
Cleaning
- I took all of our Skinny Syrups off the risers in our kitchen and washed each bottle, the risers, and the counter top underneath.
Yard Sale Saturday
I wasn’t going to yard sale last weekend, but when Bailey woke up she wanted to go and asked me to come along. I came back with a free stool, free notebook, and five sets of divider tabs for the notebook for only 25 cents. Tomorrow we are going to a thrift store going out of business sale where clothes will be selling for "all you can fit in a Walmart bag" for $1.00.
Saving Money on Entertainment
Bailey & I went to see Toy Store 5 in the theater on $6 Tuesday and picked up our two free bags of popcorn. The writing was as good as all the other Toy Story films and kept with the original storyline. We will definitely watch it again someday.
My Reading Nook ~ What I've been Reading This Week
Bailey and I went by the library to have our summer reading form stamped and picked up a plant for reading fifteen books this summer. We turned in our forms to be entered into the drawing since today was the last day.
