About Us

Welcome my Soon-To-Be-Frugal Friend!

Helloooo! I’m Shannie.

I’m a long time believer that every day should end with dirty feet and messy hair. I have embodied that belief with ease due to my serious disdain for shoes and my super fine four pieces of curly hair that are naturally a wild mess. Plants and books and creatively saving money without life sucking are my thing.

I’m secretly shy so you won’t see much of my face, but I’ll talk to ya about the frugal life all day!

My mechanical genius Farmboy hubs works in the background doing the heavy lifting & mathing. You won’t see much of him or hear from him either (he’s the strong silent type), but you’ll reap the benefits of his big ol brain on the regular!

We’re two normal (wellll…..) working class people who don’t have a lot of money, but we’ve managed to make it through some really freakin’ tough financial times without any repos or orange jump suits cuz of our frugal nature.

I’ve talked to tons of people about money, and along the way I’ve discovered that we’re weird.

Ok. Unuuuuuusual in our money choices.

Not many people live the way we do, but a lot of people want to be debt-free.

And we’re happy to share it all with you so you can do the same!

You don’t have to have much to start living like a frugal hippie (crazy hair & bare feet optional)!

Give our blog a follow for all kinds of tips for cooking, shopping, decorating, diy, gardening, weddings, and living a beautiful, free, and happy life without a lot of money.
