Blog Party 2009 - Welcome to Penny Pinch Plugs!

Ultimate Blog Party 2009I just wanted to introduce myself and my blog to all those who are finding Penny Pinch Plugs through the Blog Party 2009 links. HI! I'm Jessica, a (almost-gah!) 28 year old stay at home mom to a gorgeous (almost-yikes!) 3 year old little girl named Zoey. We are a one income family and I've been trying to save us money since before the economy took a turn for the worse. I love to plan parties and doing it on a budget is more fun because you get to be more creative with the whole experience. I am currently planning my daughter's 3rd birthday and plan to post blogs about how I am cutting corners on what will be a massive shin-dig for cents on the dollar!

This is my daughter, Zoey


I started posting blogs about money savers in my personal blogs because I wanted to share all the info I was seeing online through websites, blogs and e-mails. But I thought, why not try to spread the savings further by branching out in a blog that could help everyone. That's where Penny Pinch Plugs was started. Originally a community on LiveJournal, I also mirror post all the savings lists here on Blogger. I collect savings information for a few hours a day and usually in one post per day I'll put up the big list of everything I've found. I am still new to blogging about savings but I'm already getting more organized and I am working on my own graphics.

Hopefully you'll scroll down through my blogs and like what you see! I simply want to spread the savings around to anyone that wants the information! Follow me if you would like to stay current on all the savings and freebie opportunities I post! You can also join the Penny Pinch Plugs Community at LiveJournal!

  1. Just stopping by UBP hopping. I'm a SAHM too, and we just have one income. Sometimes it's a sacrifice, but totally worth it. At almost 28 you're just a spring chicken. Wait 'til you're almost 34! That makes you feel old.
