Free Friday- June 26
Making small changes that have big results.
Living the Good Life On A Budget can happen with small changes repeated weekly.
When combining picking up free items and frugal living tips, your life can be
transformed. Here are some ideas as to how you can make some small changes that
will have HUGE results over the course of a year.
On Friday’s I share a few frugal ideas to help you maintain The Sweet Life on a
Budget along with my money saving deals. Although I do not advocate shopping at a
large number of stores during this health crisis, if you are going to a particular store
that has a deal- just pick it up too. Knowledge is power.
Leftovers- We use our Leftovers for lunches the next day. Most of the time my husband
claims these tasty tidbits.
Garden Happiness- My garden is producing a ton of lettuces and herbs. In an effort to
preserve them for the upcoming year, I air dry them in the sun. I just place them on a
cookie drying sheet and then place on a table in a sunny window area. Once completely
dry, I will place them in containers to use throughout the year.
Basil- Italian Dishes
Mints- Teas
Oregano and parsley- Variety of dishes
Elegant Lunch- I was in the mood for an Apple Pfannkuchen (AKA German Apple
Pancake). I was delighted to have this for lunch with some strawberries.
Are you interested in making this too? No problem, here is the link:
Our Rich Backyard- Our yard continues to be graced by ducks, geese, bunnies and a
plethora of birds. It is teaming with life and we enjoy lazy summer days and nights just
sitting out on our patio and watching their shenanigans.
Careful Deal Finding- Over the past month, I have been careful with not going to many
stores during this time of staying at home and I wouldn’t encourage anyone to be out and
about unnecessarily because of the health impact. However, if I am going to the store for a
particular reason, then I try to pick up my deals. The deals are very small in number, but I
am grateful for any deal during this time.

FREE COMIC Book Summer
Free Comic Book Day is traditionally scheduled to take place the first Saturday in May each year. However, the impact and spread of COVID-19 prevented the event from being celebrated at its normal time this year. Now, the beloved event has been rescheduled and reworked to take place throughout July and early September in order to accommodate social-distancing and store capacity regulations across the country, effectively making it Free Comic Book Summer!
Scheduled to take place between July 15 and September 9, comic shops will receive five to six Free Comic Book Day (FCBD) titles in their weekly shipments during each week of the promotional window.
