10 Frugal Habits I Learned Watching My Grandmother

Frugal habits can be gentle, simple, and a little bit nostalgic. In this video, Grandma Rosie shares ten old-school money habits she learned at her grandmother’s kitchen table, where money was tight and nobody felt left out. You will hear about waiting a day before you buy, mending instead of replacing, making broth from vegetable ends, setting aside one day a week for your bills, using a rag bag, shopping with a list, borrowing before buying, wearing a cardigan before turning up the heat, planning a free afternoon, and keeping a little savings jar. Most of these cost nothing, and the rest cost very little. There is also a quiet moment about living alone and slowing down, because money and loneliness often sit at the same table. Pour a cup of tea and join me. If you enjoy small, kind, practical wisdom, please subscribe. This video is hosted by Grandma Rosie, an illustrated character.
