Got a chuckle from the list halfway down this article -- a list of what's "in" and what's "out" given the bad economy. What's funny about it to me is that I was doing most of the things that are now "in" (like brown bagging, looking for hot deals, and using the library) when they were "out." ;-)
Another thing that warmed my heart -- Macy's is now "out." Ha!
Hello! I was reading that list you spoke of and I have to agree with you in that I have been doing most of those things for quite some time, even before the economy tanked....uh..except for maybe the Starbucks thing. I do Starbucks more now than before I think. I mean, come on! Gotta have the Starbucks, right? :-)

So, in view of Buffet's maxim, and the idea that bucking the flow of the crowd is usually the way to wealth and success, should those of us who have been frugal now change our ways?
