There are many markers in our life that make us stop and take a look back to see how far we’ve come and how strong we have become because of it. My personal favorite holiday is New Years day, a chance to look back over the previous 365 days and also a time to hope for what the next 365 days will be like. Here at the ‘Festival Of Frugality’ we have a marker as well. This is the 100th week that we have been posting bloggers favorite posts on frugality. The 1st Festival of Frugality was on December 13th, 2005 and it had 13 entries. No unlucky numbers obviously as 10 of the 13 bloggers are still blogging today!
I will post the entries to today’s FoF, but will also include that bloggers first post. This is a chance to see if they have changed over the months or years and what they thought was the most important idea to them when they started their blog.
The first link with be their first post (if I got this wrong, let me know) and the second link with be their current submission for FoF 100.
