Frugal doesn't necessarily mean cheap.
I tend to be practical and decisive.

If you buy a diamond ring for $10 you probably have a diamond ring not worth a dime.

Frugal doesn't even apply to only money.
One can also be frugal with their commitments, dedication and emotions.

As for spending habits.
I buy things that I need to last a long time at a higher quality than the things that I use up quickly. To me, it is frugal in the long run.

I dont mind spending money on food and other necessities but i wont spend much on expensive dresses and handbags because i can sew dresses and make my own handmade bags.

i'm not sure...i won't buy salmon when its 14 bucks a pound
but i spare no expense when it comes to the softest toilet paper..

i believe some of the opinions here are way off topic still, i want to say thanks and may we all be reminded that life is short and thus give our lives a chance to really LIVE

I saw this posted on another forum last night. I think I've seen it posted here on Mingle. But I don't remember.

Anyway, What does it matter, at least within reason where a potential mate lives? As long as the person isn't in a homeless shelter or worse, living on the street. Why do people make such a big deal over it? I see this mostly in women. A lot of men don't seem to care. For men, it doesn't seem to be as big of a deal.

I participate in other forums. And I'm a profile reader. And in most of the profiles I read, I see close to the same things written in them. "Good man wanted." "Looking for a good man." and on and on. But when I read on down, I hit a roadblock. It doesn't apply to me. But it's a turnoff.

It usually says something like this, "I'm a very independent woman. I pay my own bills. Before you contact me, You must NOT live with a roommate or your parents.

I understand the "I pay my own bills" part of it. But what does it matter whether a person lives with a roommate or with there 80 something-year-old mom or dad? To me, it throws up a red flag when a person makes a big deal about where another person lives. To me, It comes off like you may be blowing smoke about how independent you are.

To me, it comes off like you may really be looking for someone that has a house that you can move into. In other words, You may be looking for a man/ or a woman for what they have. Not for who and what they are. Love ain't got nothing to do with it. It's really about material things. As I said, You're not really looking for a good man or woman. You're really looking for a good sucker.

Its not against the law in Nevada. Conversion kits are sold legally there.

And I was just watching channel 7 news. They purchased a conversion kit for a assault rifle ( semi auto to full auto) yesterday and had it today. The delivery address was NYC.

They purchased it from Wal- Mart.com

But I agree with the hidden agendas and lobbying that is still very evident in Washington.

And I agree that good ole American greed (which is evident in the case of Wal - Mart) is alive and well.... they ship a conversion kit to NYC... Ya got to be kidding me.

it's a kx100. I'm saving up for a ktm250.

no but would really like to ride my bike on it.
