"Are you a financial plan- ner, an investment profes- sional ... just what are you?" Now and then, I do refer to myself as a cheap- skate, but that didn't seem to fit the situation. "I'm a frugali- ty expert," I replied. I like that, and she appreciated it as well. By the looks of my mailbox, we're growing lots of frugality experts here at Everyday Cheap- skate, and that warms my heart. It's not big dramatic things we do now and then to save money, but the little things we do all the time that add up to a way of life that allows us to live below our means. FLIPPING THE BERRIES. Some of the blueberries at the bottom of the container get moldy faster than ones at the top. So now I turn the container over every night. I also do this with grapes, strawberries, raspberries, blackberries and other produce that's similarly packed in con- tainers. -- Elaine, Pennsylvania ORGANIZED ENVELOPE SYSTEM. I like to use a coupon organizer as my envelope system. I re-label each category with my envelope names, such as gas, gro- ceries, allowance, tithe, etc. This way I have all of my "envelopes" together in one place/pouch, and it's a little less conspicuous to hold my cash stash. -- Stacy, Texas CORD CONTROL. I use empty toilet paper rolls to help organize the cords from appli- ances when not in use. I just fold the cords over and slip the roll over them. This is very useful when trans- porting a slow cooker somewhere. -- Carla, Illinois GRAVY, NO LUMPS PLEASE. When making gravy or thickening a soup or stew, add flour or corn- starch and a little liquid to an empty jar. Screw on the lid, shake until everything is mixed, and pour the mixture into the hot pot or pan. Doing this makes the gravy lump-free every time. -- Edwin, North Carolina JEWELRY ON DISPLAY. I found I wasn't wearing many of my lovely necklaces and other jewelry because they were not in sight when I got dressed each day. I was in a dollar store and noticed the expandable cup racks. I bought two racks and hung them in the space next to my closet door. I hung necklaces, bracelets and even my colorful watches on the dowels meant for coffee cups. Now I see my jewel- ry every day and rarely miss wearing something from the rack. I even bought a few more and hang my many scarves in full view, as well. -- Sue, email DISHWASHER-FREE Mary Hunt Everyday Cheapskate SPACE. With the kids gone, I enjoy washing the few dishes my husband and I use. After realizing that we rarely used our new dishwasher, we sold it. Now I have a handy, out-of-the-way place for my kitchen trash, the gal- lon jugs of rug cleaner and vinegar, and my con- tainers of everyday cleaning supplies. After 10 years, I still do not miss the dishwasher. -- Carmen, Oregon Would you like to send a tip to Mary? You can email her at mary@everydaycheapskate.com , or write to Everyday Cheapskate, P.O.
