The complete Frugal February round-up

The complete Frugal February round-up

Another month has come and gone – can you believe it? It seems like just yesterday that we kicked off the Frugal February project on Don’t Ever Look Back yet two days ago signaled the end of the month and the end of our project.

What We Covered

Frugal February on Don’t Ever Look Back featured 17 dedicated posts, 10 awesome guest writers and nearly 200 comments on these posts. While we didn’t get to cover absolutely everything we wanted to (we’ve still got plenty of great savings advice stored for the next few months!), we still managed to cover a hell of a lot! Here’s the complete list of posts that were published…

The Challenges

We did plan on running 4 challenges throughout the month however only ended up doing 2.

Challenge #1 – Keep a money jar for the rest of February.
Our money jar contained $71.15! Can you believe that from just one month?! The $2 coins in Australia really helped boost this up to quite an impressive amount.

Challenge #2 – Sell at least one item on eBay or Craigslist.
As we mentioned in this post, we made a profit of $118 from selling two items on eBay.

From these two challenges we made nearly $200 – enough for at least 2 extra nights on our travel adventures! If you participated in either of these challenges, please let us know how you went by leaving a comment.
