More Tightwad News!

Okay. (deep breath) I'm going to do it.  I'm actually going to do it.

I'm restarting the Tightwad Round Robin.  No more wondering if I will or if I won't.  I'm going to do it.

So here's the details so far...
Send me your tips, tricks, tightwad hints, gardening ideas, favorite recipes, etc. in the form of a 'newsy' letter.  Print copies will be $2 per issue but I am offering something different this time in hopes of drumming up some more contributions.  FREE (yes you read that right) e-copies will be available this time too.  It will be in the form of a Word document and will be emailed to the address of your choice.  Due date for Spring submissions is May 1st.  You can email me your letter (which is the preferable route and makes it FAR easier to put together an e-version) at ji_olson@hotmail.com or you can mail it directly to me.

Any other questions?  Feel free to ask.

Know someone who would be interested and has some awesome tips to share?  Let them know about the TRR. Spread the word!  

I'm hoping I get lots and lots of letters.  I know there's always a chance this won't pan out and the TRR will remain in retirement but I'm willing to try and revive the old newsletter. 

Wishful Thinking and Tightwad Tips

No waxing poetic about the crystalline snow as is shimmers in the winter sun or how Jack Frost tickles your nose when you walk outside in the crisp, COLD winter air in this blog post. Nope, this post is about pinching pennies and tightwad tricks.  Not mine. Well, not ALL mine anyway.  Everyone else has tips and tricks for stretching those hard earned dollars, right? Soooo.....I was going thru a box of papers this morning and came across my old copies of the Tightwad Round Robin (all four of them) and just had to read them front to back, cover to cover.  Now I'm wishing for a new edition...Am I the only one who misses the old newsletter?  Is there interest out there for resurrecting it?

I'm even offering to be editor if there's others willing to contribute letters.
