The Frugal Law Student posted this week’s Festival of Frugality #84. This festival is a collection of articles about frugality from some of the finest PF bloggers. My article “The cost of upgrading your viewing experience” was included in the Frugal Entertainment section.

Here are some of my favorites:

  • Cheap Healthy Good gives a good rundown of required goods for a well-stocked pantry.
  • ZooLaw provides a list of about 12 free legal resources.
  • Credit Panda recounts 10 most frugal celebrities. Sometimes, though, frugality is relative to your income and social status.
  • KCLau’s Money Tips gives an interesting lesson of financial tips from the Transformers movie. (with images and video)

    Thanks for the mention! I love the debt scale feature in this blog. It’s a great physical representation of what we’re all trying to overcome. Best of luck to you!
