Do you need a price list? Just to give you an idea, here is a small portion of my “list” embedded into memory of what I would never pay over a dollar for.

Crafts Supplies: Cheap and Free...
With the approach of Christmas I am reminded of the stress within every tightwad to come up with gifts for those we exchange gifts with. Should you be willing to express yourself creatively through the medium of gift giving, sooner or later another shock to the tightwad system is certain to occur. Hence a glimpse of the craft industry as it is eagerly cutting a huge piece of the consumer profit pie. The good news is that you can obtain many resources for much less than the major craft production companies would like. Here are some of the secrets…

Giving and Thanks To Our Neighbors With Love
I know that in my own struggle, and within the struggles of those I know around me, I am still extremely blessed to have what I know many may not. Unfortunately when I was going to school, I remembered making cut-outs of turkeys and pilgrims. I decorated feathered turkeys with what I was “thankful” for, dried apples and however, nothing that I did at school, or learned from my parents ever taught me the true unseen miracle and grace of being thankful. Here is what I have learned so far. Whether you have much to give and share, or little even for yourself, I have some ideas that I hope will help you for the holiday and every day.
