5 Frugal Ways to Save for a Work-At-Home Mom

If you are a work-at-home mom with a job (besides the most important one called MOM), you can learn how to become frugal with your money. Here are five frugal ways to save money while working at home:

1. Save on clothing. You never have to get dressed in clothes for someone else to see. Work in your PJ's if you want!



2. Save on gas. With the price of gasoline you can save big here.



3. Save on daycare or babysitter expenses. This can be a major expense to most people.



4. Save on eating out for lunch. You don't have to eat out everyday during your lunch break, thereby saving even more money. Just keep your fridge stocked.



5. Save time and money by cooking meals for your family ahead of time. FrugalMom.net can show you how. Although this will take one day to do, it is worth the time for one less stress during the week at about dinner time.

You can afford to stay at home with your children if you practice frugality. It will take some practice and discipline but it can become a way of life.
