in Old style MoneySaving
I have always been an O/S girl at heart and have been lurking for ages so have finally decided to bite the bullet and say Hello!

Iam a 41year old stay at home mom 2 kids, DS14 & DD4 and have always had to watch the pennies where the food bill is concerned due to only having one wage earner in our house (O/H) I have already manage to cut the food shop even further due to the number of great threads on this site and hope I will eventually be able to contribute.

Many Thanks.

    Hi Icemaiden, welcome to Old Style. I hope you find a wealth of information here :)

    In a short while I shall add your post to the getting to know you thread (at the top of this board) so that everyone else can read about you without it disappearing ;)

    Edited to say:
    Why don't you add your introduction to our "getting to know you" thread yourself? You can meet lots of our other members there too and get to know a bit about us all. ;) :T
