My parents grew up during the depression so not wasting was a huge part of our culture. Waste not, want not. ?

My parents also grew up this way... Getting out of school to pick cotton even.

But they spoiled me a bit too much growing up so it took me getting a little older and wiser to look back at the way they managed to do what they did on the income they had.

I'm trying not to do that with our kids... I'm like, it just cost us 150 bucks to go out to eat on vacation... We could have stayed here an extra night? Was it worth it to you?
