Default California Newbie says Hi, all.
I did a search for "frugal" sites, as I figure that saving money is like having a higher standard of living. I can save in some areas, to have a little "extra" to spend as I need/wish.
I live fulltime in an RV, and have little storage space. So I try to keep items which have more than one use. "Speciality" items (like kitchen contraptions, MUST earn their space by being able to be used in at least 2 different ways. (Example, I use the coffeemaker to just heat plain water to use for dishwashing / quick rinse-offs / cooking . This saves the propane used for water heating (which is expensive)).
Since I found this site a few days ago, I can't wait to check in and see it when I log-in. GREAT SITE!

Welcome to the site, we spend lots of time in the summer in a camper (parked) so I know exactly what you mean by things having to do dual-duty. Would love to hear some more double uses you have found. Hope you enjoy your time here.
