After reading 8isgreat's last post about her grocery budget struggles I was reminded of a recent article by a guest poster on Money Saving Mom about Practicing Hospitality on a Budget.
It was something the author struggled with until she set up a separate cash envelope for "hospitality" and put a set amount of money in there each month. Something so simple, yet I never thought it before!
Hopefully this article will be helpful to you and your family.
