Funeral of Necati Aydin
Muslims murder Christian Pastor in the name of Islam. They pretended to seek after Jesus just to murder. Can Believers in G-D just stand back and do nothing? Can the World Just stand back and watch Muslims murder fathers of young children? Now a wife is a widow and children are fatherless. Can we allow Muslims to continue to rob, steal, and kill?

Arab-American Psychologist Wafa Sultan
It is nice to hear it from an Arab the truth admitting that the founding of Muslim, its doctrine, and Koran filled with vengeance, and murder against non-believers even innocent babies and not the peaceful religion that others proclaim it is. Let us go forth with this knowledge never letting our guard down as Muslims surround this world with terrorism. Have a Merry Christmas.

“I don’t like my property to be zoned" says Jim Albergotti
Jim Albergotti Orangeburg County Planning Commission Member and Chestnut Grill Owner presented and explained at the weekly Wednesday Night Supper Program at St. Paul United Methodist Church “the force through, proposed Orangeburg County zoning regulations” that is predicted to become law in January 2007 unless there is a rise up mass of citizens against the plan, according to Albergotti.
Albergotti said,” the people in Orangeburg will be upset when they find out they will have to have vegetation barriers around their property and other regulations soon to take effect.While Albergotti said he tried to delay Orangeburg getting a compressive zoning due to “I don’t like my property to be zoned and I feel that no one else likes it either”, to hell or high water zoning is the evil we will all have to face come January 2008.
The not updated Zoning ordinance .PDF is at http://gis.orangeburgcounty.org/maps/planning/zoningbook.pdf 131 pages beware of hidden details.
While listening to Albergotti I come up with items that concerned me.
First draft of the proposed zoning ordinance was entirely written by a consultant from Aiken not written by any citizen or office holder of Orangeburg County. THIS REALLY CONCERNS ME!!!
Albergotti said, “That the comprehensive plan that they sprung the proposed zoning is outdated”. If it is outdated, then the proposed zoning ordinance is wrong but due to mandate of South Carolina Government, it is being forced through “come hell or high water”.
Albergotti was asked about a phrased in the Proposed Zoning literature he brought but could not explain what it was and when he did after going over the literature explained but guessed what it meant.
Before Albergotti spoke, he just came directly from the Planning Commission monthly meeting, which he serves on and said they made 41 zoning changes on the map, as they will do more changes until County Council gives it final reading approval.
County Council cannot submit changes it can only pass or not pass the proposed Zoning Ordinance.Not one citizen has seen the full present zoning ordinance in its entirety and with the rushed state the planning commission is doing before it gives its approval it seems to me the ole boy network is fast at hand.
With all the previous said and done, this is my recommendation that the Zoning Ordinance be table for 2 years and let all citizens has a change to look at and discuss the proposed Zoning Ordinances.
This proposed zoning ordinance appears rushed through just like the chicken farm zoning fiasco that Albergotti said then present Orangeburg County Council Chairman Johnny Rickenbaker was wrong on trying to zone the chicken farms since the state already did.
I am concerned about this rush through, parting the property owners and future property owners the right to design, maintain their property the way they see fit.South Carolina is fast becoming, no longer the home of the free and the brave rather is now the land of the dictated and malign.
If this does not get some to rise up the banner/ Stars and Bars once more, nothing will for freedom inSouth Carolina will now be displayed in a history museum.
G-D help us all.

It is time to "bulk" up on water
It is time to "bulk" up on water the drought is here maybe to stay.
In the Times & Democrat 'Bad for everybody' - Drought taking its toll on Edisto, but level not yet a problem for DPU
By GENE ZALESKI, T&D Staff Writer Tuesday, December 11, 2007
Reports of the drought condition of the North Fork are precariously low just two feet above 85-year record low.
Its time to buy, buy, buy, water in 1 gallon, 5 gallons, tanker load etc.
The drought is here. It is time to read the Bible in Deuteronomy where it says if we do not obey G-D, he will withhold the rain from us. I think that is what is happening now.

Group Buys
A while back, I talked about mega buying power. No one much did this until a man from the same state that Presidential contender Mike Huckabee former Arkansas Governor. Sam Walton bought product in mega bulk and sold lower in cost than everyone else did.
Now there is people doing the same in neighborhoods joining massing there buying power to purchase products at a lower cost. One example of Group buyers at http://www.kensingtonheightsweb.com/market.cfm, which is a community website of Kensington Heights, Maryland.
Group buying is a thrifty way to get more bang for your buck. Create a group and see how much money you can save. It would be easy but takes a lot of work to set up a profitable buyers' group. Soon I will have seminars to teach how to create a “Buyer’s Group. For information on these seminars email me at WebmasterSanta AT yahoo.com

Once Again, I am right! I keep being so Right they will start to call me Rush Limbaugh LOL.
I was talking to a friend of mine a 25+ something; he is a father, and husband. He has lived the life of the here and now. He had the ideas of sales and discounts and free stuff but he found himself in major debt. He and maybe the wife is like a stampede by the way they charge.
Being thrifty is not hooking up with free stuff or even fire sale priced stuff. Living Thrifty in Carolina and beyond life (TM) © 2007 is a disciplined life-choice. It is not always easy but the end-product is fabulous.
“The direction you start on is the direction you are heading”©2007 by Rabbi Dale
Sure, you may save here and there but when you are in the saving mode, you by default spending mode and thereby you will still end in debt. You justify what you are buying and justify what you are saving/spending (saving/spending is the name I coined for the mechanics of even while you are trying to save money while you are spending money you are still "spending" money.) but the end is still the same, money out of your pocket.
I call one blogger her blog “clueless living” because she does not have a clue what she is doing wrong. Maybe if she gets to be a 103 then maybe she will wise up and say this ole Rabbi was right all along. Her idea as with many others is that she goes out and tries to find deals or even free stuff to save money. She seems to forget that even in this saving/shopping mode time is money. If you make $10 and hour at work, your are worth $10.00 an hour off the job in your free time?
My friend has been in debt counseling and eventually will get out of the debt noose around his neck. Once you gotten in debt it is not so easily to get out.
When you get behind in your debt the best thing to do is communicate to who you are in debt to. They want you to get out of debt and may work a repayment plan. You do not have to walk this alone. Many times, they will shorten your debt or even cancel it after they see you are trying to pay it off.
My family use to own a small apartment complex we bought from the original owner. Along with the complex came the present tenants and one was single mother of three. This tenant was so deep in debt. Her ex-husband and father of the children was not paying child support and she was doing all she could to stay afloat. This went on for 6 months and she eventually was paying her rent fully each month plus extra to try to catch up. One day my Dad, Mom, Sister and myself went over to see our tenant. We showed her the amount that she owed on the paper and she told us she was trying to get it paid. My dad said that was not the issue he said you been paying your full rent and then some. He tore up the paper and said you don’t owe us any extra just keep paying your rent and even at that my dad told her he is charging her 1/3 less on rent so had can more money to feed her kids.
I wish I had a landlord like that.
Do the best you can and look at your life and see what you really do not need. Life can still be fun but with a little less stuff.

Well it is officially Chanukah and Christmas shopping season
Well it is officially Chanukah and Christmas shopping season so it is time to get thrifty. With the muslim countries charging high mega prices on oil its time to stop using muslim products and learn to be thrifty.
You can shop from home via a catalog, which is good, but the best way is shopping via the World Wide Web. Stores will run specials or discounts to entice the shopper to shop at their location. Many website atr a virtual extension to a brick and mortar store you see at the mall etc. Online stores may offer free shipping or certain discount off, bargain basements or outlet shopping.
You have plenty of time to shop the store will not close, as long as you have a live internet connection. In virtual shoping you can even shop with no shirt and no shoes. Many have an online chat associate to help as well as a phone number you can call 24 hours a day and a toll free number to save you from having to make a long distance toll call.
In today’s age DHL/Airborne, UPS and even the Post Office delivers your purchases to your door, but beware they may leave them at your door without you being there so find out how they deliver. You shop, they deliver.
In full disclosure, the product(s) on the left are companies I have a stake in and the profits from all sales goes to fund life-giving support to Street Children.
May you have thrifty day,

The blogger that I have nicknamed “Clueless Living”
The blogger that I have nicknamed “Clueless Living” raised the question in her blog asking for ideas that she and others “can go to get stuff free or cheap this holiday season”.
In an earlier blog she stated that “she is not a mooch” but then she goes to talk about how at her job she mooches food off people go on dates just to get him/her to pay for her meal which my Momma would have called that prostitution. etc.
When I was her young age, I knew that you had to earn what you received in life. Life is tough but not to live in the gravy train of welfare and to spend ones life trying to live greedy without accountability.
This type of person seems to think they have nothing to lose by the way they live, When they get stuff free etc, they waste the money they saved on themselves by buying new CDs or buy eating high price ice cream etc. rather than re-investing it into the needy world around them.
Some day when this life is over they are going to realize when the flames of hell is licking around them that this ole Rabbi was right and more so that the W-rd of G-D is right.
Now it is close to Chanukah & Christmas it seems she and her readers who want things free are forgetting the reason for the season. It is not the mooching season but the giving season.
Let us remember to help those who need a hand up. Let us not be caught up in the me-me holidays but rather into the help others season that should last all year round.

Earl Middleton Lived Thrifty
I recall the first time I met Earl Middleton he was sweeping the sidewalk outside of his office. I talked briefly and asked about painting his house. Of many buildings on Amelia Street, his one is unique. Its and old house I guess white exterior with blue shutters and trim. We parted as I was late for an appointment and he asked me to come back. Though the years of living in Orangeburg and even in South Carolina I have learned that when one says, "come again" is as truthful as Hollywood Movies; but with Earl Middleton, he lived by what he says.
I came back by a week later and I expected maybe talking to him for 5 minuets turned into a two hour chat. Every time I went to see Earl, it was a 2 - 3 hour chat. He was proud of his lineage Grand father was a Claflin Trustee. He was proud of His G-d and his church, Trinity (UMC) Methodist. Proud of Claflin University. He was a proud papa and mentioned about Kenny many times.
His hard-earned wealth did not put a barrier between those of us that are struggling financially as most black and white rich people in this town does. When you talked to Earl Middleton you would never knew of his wealth. His office was simple few pictures, all of importance on the walls, but not grandiose in style.
He crossed racial barriers with his words and life. Earl is different that most anyone in Orangeburg and beyond.. Most blacks, whites wear their skin color on their sleeve but Earl did not. When you talked to Earl, you were not talking to a black man named Earl Middleton, but rather you were talking to Earl.
When he said, he felt your struggles of lack of employment etc. he meant it unlike Hillary and Bill Clinton. He truly felt your struggle and would do what he could to help. You felt like he was in the ditch with you, contrary to how others treat the poor and homeless in Orangeburg, and beyond.
If Earl would of lived 500 more years then Orangeburg, South Carolina, the South, etc. may finally become the place, he envisioned for our community and world.
Therefore, Earl Mazal Tov, and my Prayers are with Kenny and the rest of the family, those of us who were your friends, community and beyond, may we live as you talked and live, today, tomorrow, and all the years to come till we too get to go Home.
Till Next Time, Mazal Tov,

Idea of a Thrifty Living College ©2007 by Rabbi Dale All Rights Reserved
©2007 by Rabbi Dale All Rights Reserved
Colleges Today is Too Much Mega Business
Too much money and no value schools, what would happen if there were a FREE – NO COST tuition University?
What if, the there was two branches of a University, one was a physical college for those traditional students, and one virtual/ physical college for the non-traditional student,
The traditional one would be suited for the young students as well as He or she could still live at home and grow and mature in that setting.
The non- traditional college would be suited for working parents those who had to go to work to keep a roof over their head etc, never was able to go to college or to those who never were able to finish going to college.

What if both types of the university were totally free of tuition?
What if, this college was non-traditional in the sense that it be book and practical experiences courses, and different from the traditional colleges of today which are are book and test courses?
What if this was all free to the students? Overhead was paid for without ANY government money or grants. It would be priceless.
There are many former students that for one reason or another never able to complete college. Things happen. What if the person is denied a promotion because he/she does not have the degree. Sure, there are other colleges like Phoenix International but the cost of going is extremely high.
Many good people out there have written books on subjects they know but do not have the brand name to get their textbook into a college. Western brand education is stuck in nomads land and is all head knowledge heart knowledge.
The are innumerable homeless people that could use such a college, the same for countless others.
A strong educational background that knows how to read and write,science, math, etc and a strong biblical background is a must foundation to have a stable life along with a working income to be able to provide for ones needs and help other in the name of G-D.

Colleges Today is Too Much Mega Business
Too much money and no value schools, what would happen if there were a FREE – NO COST tuition University?
What if, the there was two branches of a University, one was a physical college for those traditional students, and one virtual/ physical college for the non-traditional student,
The traditional one would be suited for the young students as well as He or she could still live at home and grow and mature in that setting.

It is soon to be Thanksgiving in 3 days and for thrifty living to have a few hours not have to spend money. There is such a place, a unique place in Dallas Texas.
For years, there was a sort of triangle piece of land that I cannot remember if any thing was ever built on it, is now the location for Thanksgiving Square and can be seen here. Thanksgiving Square is built on the idea that all religions have the idea of Thanksgiving. That is not very true. The world seems to empoach on Uniqueness of the Biblical G-D the G-D of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
It is a place to reflect on the Creator, the G-D of Abraham, Isaac, & Jacob.
Thanksgiving Square is located at 1627 Pacific Ave Pacific (between Akard and Bryan) Dallas, TX 75201
Hours: Monday to Friday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM; Weekends and Holidays from 1:00 to 5:00 PM
For more information, call in the United States, 888-305-1205 toll-free
or 214-969-1977 in the Dallas area; or send an e-mail to tgs@thanksgiving.org
Have a great Thanksgiving and remember the poor and homeless.

What do you do, summer is no longer here and not yet spring?
Rabbi Dale ©2007 by Rabbi Dale
What do you do, summer is no longer here and not yet spring? The children are sick and cannot go out to play. You want a family activity that does not cost an arm and a leg.
Well its time to grow your own food. No, I am not off my rocker. Many people have plants around the home so why not do the same only make them editable plants. Park Seed Company (see http://www.parkseed.com/) who sent seeds in space with NASA’s help, had in their current catalog has 10 types of lettuce, see http://www.parkseed.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/StoreCatalogDisplay?storeId=10101&catalogId=10101&langId=-1&SearchText=p16.v231;s1.Lettuce&CharRange=NZ&DisplayAvailable=C&mainPage=advsearchresults&scChannel=Vegetables%20AS .
Here in Orangeburg, the grocery stores do not carry a huge selection of lettuces and you can grow your own and not have to use high price gas to go shop for it.
It will be a great to surprise your Thanksgiving guests with a slice of pumpkin pie and watermelon. Both you can grow inside the house.
No, you do not dig up the floor you grow in pots. I help a friend out at their organic hydroponic strawberry farm. Berries grown in pots on a stand with a drip line and you can grow tons more stuff hydroponicly than conventional in the dirt farming. Grow stuff in pots is a long tradition, see http://the.honoluluadvertiser.com/article/2007/Nov/09/il/hawaii711090327.html. In a few weeks, you can have fresh lettuce for your family. If you continually grow new lettuce, you can have lettuce all year round. Of course, you can grow many things in a pot inside and outside the house.
As with any new activity/hobby etc., you have a learning curve to master but its all-possible and not much labor. Soon you will be surprising friends and relatives to fresh produce you cannot locally grow this time of year.
Till next time, have a Thrifty Living in Carolina and beyond day™2007

“The responsibleness of government is to not infringe on the rights, privileges, etc. of its citizens.” ©2007 by RabbiDale All Rights Reserved
Violation of these words is what happened to Marie Antoinette, Louis XVI, etc.
Now our own SC State Senator Brad Hutto is doing the same again in his attempt to covertly regulate the Internet and private businesses.
Brad’s assumption is that South Carolina State government must be in competition with private business and or if possible block private businesses from operating under their own directives. It is sad that Brad is well known for using untruths, legal maneuverings, etc. to try to persuade the voters, citizens and powers that think they be, to his, and other’s Democrat liberal plans.
One of the latest cases is Brad while being an attorney and SC State Senator representing SCDOT (South Carolina Department of Transportation) which is a conflict of interest against a private landowner, over a simple placement of a retaining pond in St. Matthews. Brad and SCDOT attempting to block the landowner’s placing the planned but not yet existing retaining pond in the back of the property out of the way and where the front of the property will be more useable.
Now here is Brad’s latest attempt to have SC government in competition with private business and or if possible block private businesses from operating under their own directives see the Times and Democrat story at http://thetandd.com/articles/2007/11/13/news/12790284.txt
Brad is wrong in the assumption that there are some people not able to get broadband Internet and that is not true. Satellite Broadband is available in rural South Carolina. Log on to HughesNet https://www.ussatellite.com/order-hughesnet.html & Direct TV go to http://www.directv.com/DTVAPP/index.jsp and others.
So Brad you once again is wrongo. We the citizens of this State, Country & World do not need government help in the Internet etc., Thank You for stopping by Brad. Please stop wasting our tax money on these useless tax money endeavors of yours, fellow Democrats, and Rhinos Pork Politicians, its just plain wrong, Shame on You.

Cornerstone Makes Thrifty and Saves on Building Expenses
©2007 by Rabbi Dale All Rights Reserved
Great things are soon to be happening In Orangeburg. For over two years, Winn-Dixie Corporation has left Orangeburg and has left behind a huge building on Chestnut in their wake. The building remains vacant while many rumors have floated of whom the next occupant will be. While rumors of Target and other big box stores have come and gone, no one has moved in, but that soon will all change.
Sunday November 11, 2007 during the three morning services, Cornerstone Community Church Pastor Artie Davis announced to the congregation that Cornerstone is buying the old Winn-Dixie on Chestnut Street to house the church with a possible move in date of fall of 2008 after the massive remodeling of the building. To many this would be a humongous undertaking but Cornerstone is in its tenth year and steadily growing. According to a church officer that the sanctuary is, about 80% occupied in the two of the three services and has to either build a new building or move to a larger building. Their prayers been answered at 1481 Chestnut Street with 48,400 Square Feet of room, which is several times larger than Cornerstone's present building but Davis reported, “that with the expected growth the building would be well used. “
According to Cornerstone Community Church Pastor Freemon Thomas, “Two of the three annex buildings are now housing some of the youth activities and the third one will soon be called into service for the youth of the Church.”
In my investigating Cornerstone does take an interest in being a well run mechanism to serve G-D and His people. Many have tried to be a church similar to cornerstone but have not paid attention to details such as highly visible parking attendants, connection groups where you feel connected not left on a string, and all ages Youth groups to meet the spiritual needs of the children. Cornerstone has re-invested in itself and that sees to be working.
While many churches in Orangeburg are feeling the pinch of declining membership rolls and have started a contemporary service similar to Cornerstone yet roils are still declining, Cornerstone is growing by leaps and bounds with no end insight. Cornerstone has seemed too taken the time for details and peer fellowship one thing that the churches in Orangeburg has neglected. Pastor David Yonggi Cho of Yoido Full Gospel Church (Assemblies of God), The largest church in the world. started this concept and his church has grown in South Korea by mega leaps and bounds.
The next question is will the old Winn-Dixie be large enough in two to three years for Cornerstone.
Many churches have tried to imitate Cornerstone’s worship service, and have failed because the secret of Cornerstone is the connection of fellowship. Once Cornerstone gets hold of the scriptural mandate of Matt 25 34 – 46, helping their own members and non-members in their needs and crises. Emulating the love of 1 Corinthians 13 also standing up for the Jewish people, the spiritual energy behind Cornerstone will fathom any church in the south maybe all of the Fifty States, Just watch and see.

Its Holiday Time Again - Part One
Its Holiday Time Again.
This time of the year, it can be the loneliest and the most expensive. It time to think out of the traditional box to live Thrifty.
Thanksgiving is not your gift-giving holiday but it is laden with food expenses. Holiday expenses can be not as one-time expensive if you spread the cost over a year. Can products can last for over a year and frozen food if sealed properly can last a year or so. Caution always date the product & check “best used by date”.
It is almost too late for thrifty food planning for this Thanksgiving, Chanukah and even Christmas but use these seasons holidays to plan for next year. The world famous Macy’s™ parade team starts working on the next year parade the day after this year’s parade. Simply said, “planning is everything”. Start by writing notes and ideas as these holidays unfold. Write the amount of food used and divide it per person as an estimate. Do not become so rigid as to lose the fun of the holidays. So what if Uncle Fred eats two shares of food. Food planning is just simply a guideline not the law. Remember people are more important than anything else for Yeshua/Jesus died for us and we are to love supremely.
Here in Carolina and elsewhere peach cobbler is a favorite dish. You can have peach cobbler in the middle of winter if you learn to preserve/can peaches when they come into harvest. You can purchase peaches in a tin can but the cost is higher and simply not as enjoyable when together with the family and friends preserved them together.
Our last two to three generations for the most part have lost touch with how to do things themselves and this is sad that if a major crises or terrorism takes over, they will not know how to live without all the fancy gadgets etc.
So take the time to learn the hand-made natural way it can be fun and life enriching as you do.
To be a thrifty living household one must invest time and energy into this important lifestyle. One cannot just live thrifty off the cuff. The ones who are deep credit card debt are the ones that live off the cuff or spur of the moment. It is not easy to life a thrifty life but with time, energy, and a family & community team, it can be very rewarding both financially and emotional comfort.
If you save $20 a week, you saved $1,040 over the course of a year. Pennies saved turned into dollars, dollars saved turns into a boatload of money but it is all up to you.
Next time: Food planning for the year-end holidays.
Till next time,
Mazal Tov,

The receipt goes like this
Tonight I had a can of beans for supper actually its all I ate all day except for a P&J. I drained off all the water/juice and had an old bottle of hot barbeque sauce, left over parmesan cheese in packets from Pizza Hut™. I call it “Beans & Cheese”. It was good but now I am hungry again, I must have thought I was eating Chinese food.
The receipt goes like this
One can of beans I had.
Add a couple of good drops of sauce. I had some store brand hot BBQ sauce I bought for 99 cents that was on special. A couple of big drops of BBQ Sauce. (Couple, that means “two” to those who do not know what a couple means) (You be surprised no one under the age of 30 knows what couple means.)
Two slices of good bread. G-D blessed me with Pepperidge Farm’s™ bread. It s day old but its still great.
This is good cold if you on the streets but Praise G-D I have a house with a gas stove so I was able to heat it up.
Cooking instructions:
Open can and drain beans
Put drained beans in cooking pot.
Tear bread in small pieces and add with beans.
Put enough BBQ sauce in to moisten beans and moisten bread.
Stir mixture; add more sauce as needed.
Cook mixture until hot and remove from stove.
Stir in black pepper to taste
Open packets of cheese and sprinkle heavy over the mixture.

The receipt goes like this
One can of beans I had.
Add a couple of good drops of sauce. I had some store brand hot BBQ sauce I bought for 99 cents that was on special. A couple of big drops of BBQ Sauce. (Couple, that means “two” to those who do not know what a couple means) (You be surprised no one under the age of 30 knows what couple means.)
Two slices of good bread. G-D blessed me with Pepperidge Farm’s™ bread. It s day old but its still great.
This is good cold if you on the streets but Praise G-D I have a house with a gas stove so I was able to heat it up.
Cooking instructions:
Open can and drain beans
Put drained beans in cooking pot.
Tear bread in small pieces and add with beans.
Put enough BBQ sauce in to moisten beans and moisten bread.
Stir mixture; add more sauce as needed.
Cook mixture until hot and remove from stove.
Stir in black pepper to taste
Open packets of cheese and sprinkle heavy over the mixture.
Eat, and enjoy
Till next time.

Water Water Again?
Water Water Again?
First let me say that the information I am about to give is not because the company paid me money to mention them in my blog.
My last blog I talked about how we are in a drought and people are stockpiling cases of water. If you also decide to stockpile water, the thriftiest way is
1. Tap water is economically cheap but how do you store gallons of it cheaply? When stockpiling water via tap water, one should buy a high quality purifying filter system. While the water may come from a safe source, the water lines to your faucet may not be. In the older homes we have here in the Carolinas many still have lead pipes etc.so be cautious in stockpiling tap water as well as finding suitable containers to hold gallons of water.
2. If deciding stockpiling tap water is not convenient for you and your family another option and the one most used by people is stockpiling water via water bottles such as Augafina™ etc. You can go to Wal-Mart™ and buy cases upon cases or water for a moderate cost
3. If you want to make your stockpiling thriftier then go to the source. Water bottling companies may sell their product direct cheaper than if you bought them from the store, even from Wal-Mart™
Our local water bottling company is Country Clear™ http://countryclear.com
Water I bought from them direct was priced lower than sold in the store. Their idea is, that it cost them less to sell direct so they passed the savings to the consumer.
Country Clear™ sells water in the 16 & 32-ounce bottles as well as one, three, and five gallon containers. Prices can be found at http://countryclear.com/prod02.htm . For the three or the five-gallon container they also have the tank dispensers. There are two models one is "cook and cold" which is regular water and refrigerated water. The second is Hot and cold water. Both models are rented monthly for pennies a day and can be viewed here. http://countryclear.com/prod01.htm
Country Clear services the Aiken, Bamberg, Barnwell, Calhoun, Fairfield, Newberry, Orangeburgh, Richland, and Saluda Area. If you are not in their market area, they may ship via DHL, UPS etc.
Country Clear as well as other bottlers use the Reverse Osmosis (RO) Purification Process and is a 5-step process go to http://countryclear.com/roprocess.htm for further information.
This article is not to promote Country Clear™ sut it is our local bottler and a good company from my experiences with them.
Whatever market area you are in look for a local bottler and see if you can get a thriftier price from them when you buy direct, or a bottler that will ship to you
When stockpiling water etc. verify that the floor can withstands the extra weight etc. or you may have a Katrina re-enactment.
Till next time,

Water, Water is not Always Everywhere to Drink.
Water, Water is not Always Everywhere to Drink.
In our news, Cobb's stricter water limits go into effect http://www.ajc.com/metro/content/metro/cobb/stories/2007/10/31/waternw_1101.html?cxntlid=inform
In addition, in The State Reservoir level key to drought meeting http://www.thestate.com/361/story/216778.html Water levels are dropping fast.
According to WLTX News Our Governor Wants South Carolinians to Conserve Water http://www.wltx.com/news/story.aspx?storyid=54722
The drought is here already. Here in Orangeburg at the north fork of the Edisto River you nearly can walk on water. To a tall person you can walk across the riverbed and not get your head wet. The river is our primary water supply for Orangeburgh, and DPU (Department of Public Utilities) has yet to put out a water rationing notice. With no rain in sight is seems DPU is lacking in wisdom by not asking the community to slow down their water usage.
According to another AJC.com news story “Better safe than thirsty, say Atlantans stockpiling water”, http://www.ajc.com/search/content/metro/stories/2007/10/29/waterhoarding1029.html People are not waiting for the government to act on the lack of water or its purity. Atlantans are stockpiling water to ensure they have plenty to drink.
In today’s world of Muslim and Palestinian terrorist along with drought conditions one must be prepared for the safety and well-being of one’s family and community, stockpiling water is a way to do that.
Since one can always use stored excess water and is generally safe to store, it is necessary do.
The moral of this story is to live a “Thrifty life in Carolina and Beyond™ one must buy products as thrifty as possible and that may mean buying in bulk. If one can incorporate one’s community in buying a truckload of water in five and or one gallon containers one can save. The community working together for the common good puts themselves in a more stable and protective enclave
Another way to ensure a continual water supply is to save rainwater.
By putting drain spouts into non-corrosive (plastic) containers/barrels one can save rainwater. You can use rainwater to water plants, lawns, etc. One must filter and purify the water if you use it for human or animal consumption. Saving rainwater is a method homeowner’s use in the West.
Saving water is biblical in the sense that Joseph in Egypt save grain to get ready for the long drought that G-D revealed to him. We should use the same wisdom today’s and thus putting a barrier against potential terrorism dangers.
So check the stores etc for sales on bottled water as well as get your community together to buy in bulk and then call the water bottle company and see how much you can save.
In storing water, you may have to make wooden shelves etc. to hold all yur water safely.

Thrifty Living Lifestyle is best served when done with a village.

Thrifty Living Lifestyle is best served when done with a village.
Buying in Bulk or Wholesale, you have to purchase excessive amounts of product. Duh! However, the sad truth is that when you factor in shipping cost etc. the price is over one’s budget even if it is a great deal.
A box of 9’ x 400’ visquene (plastic sheeting) at Lowe’s™ is $20.36 before tax, or 0.005655 a square foot. While this is a fair price, you have 3,600 square feet of product. For your project, you need 1,000 square feet therefore wasting away in your storeroom or trash can 2,600 square feet. Bottom-line you wasted $14.70+, not a pretty sight and something your wife will probably nag you for years to come. Visquene AKA plastic sheeting is for covering windows during the winter as I talked about in an earlier blog. (Click on link) It has been so nice of weather...
The moral of this story is to live thrifty and is best to join together with others (your place of worship, work, community, etc) and join your buying power to get great deals as well as sharing product overage.
For almost 200 years, people been buying stuff and paying high prices for it, then a man from Arkansas took hold of the retail market and streamlined it. Was this a deep, dark secret that for years was hidden from the world and only viewed by some secret society? No! It was just simple economic fact that the more you buy the lower the price. Sam Walton made the difference via Wal-Mart™ and in particular Sam’s Club™.
If all the churches and synagogues in the Carolinas bought together as one, we would save a container ship full of money. Will this happenen? No not in G-D’s lifetime, Lol. I am not out to “do in” retail establishments, of course this will never happen because there will always be someone that will still buy from Sears™, K-Mart™ and yes even Wal-Mart™ but the rest of us, will use Sam’s philosophy.
Bottom-line: Thrifty Living Best Served When Done With a Village!
Next Time or soon I will explain more in detail how you can do this.

Think Soup
Think Soup
My mind lately is on the coming winter. We need to plan for it as to make our life more Thrifty. In thinking ahead, I think of Soup. While Campbell’s make a good soup (notice I said good not great) I like making my own. When compared to a tiny can to a huge pot of your own making the thriftiest way is to make your ownsoup.
Think Crock Pot
The best way to the simplest and me is to use a crock-pot. It is not large enough to make soup for a huge family but you can let it cook all day and that is the major advantage of it. You let all the veggies seep and become softer allowing the juices to intermingle. You put it all together in the morning and by dinner time its ready to serve.
Think Experiments
One great thing about cooking soup etc. is you can try different ways of cooking it. True you may end up with a disaster meal/soup but you may also get something that is so good it will become a family tradition. Do not be afraid to try to see how others have made a great pot of soup. Email me and let me know of your great winter soups and or dishes.

It has been so nice of weather...
It has been so nice of weather it is hard to plan for Brrrrrr!!! Winter!!!!
Here the leaves have barely fallen and the grass is still growing. It has been nice but to some winter may have already started to show it cold colors. In some places, it does not get cold so much but it is wise to be prepared ahead of time.
Layer clothing is better than one heavy snowsuit; this is true for the windows etc as well. You do not want to seal off all the drafts in the house you need some air ventilation so you do not get CO2 poisoning. I have in past bought or acquired thick mil plastic sheeting and put a sheet on the outside of the window and anoter sheet on the inside of the window. Use the clear type to let in sunlight. We have also cut a small hole so to put a sheet of handi-wrap do to be able to see through for the plastic sheeting for they generally are not see-thru clear.
Little trick, as these will make your utility bill lighter and you in a more Thrifty living in Carolina and beyond lifestyle.

It's time to get off the fast unnatural lane.
It's time to get off the fast unnatural lane. Life used to be simple and sweet and now even with technology life has become too competitive and unfriendly. This is to say that its not tech fault but rather people have become to modern/com temporary not caring and holing up to their own kind/family.
I am from Colorado and life in the western slope was more natural & friendly. i guess it comes from the ruggedness of the physical enviorment and the true changes of the seasons.
In the harvest time of July /august you pick apples/ etc. and preserve them for the long winter. you start to winterize your home by stocking up wood and food.
those days here in South Carolina and maybe else where is not seen anymore. The tele-evangelist have taken over and those sho feed the poor and homeless in the city parks are criminalized.
Here in Orangeburg the seasons really don't change its just usually too hot or too cold, granted that the cold is not like back home but rather its rather unpleasant.
During the winter I usually live in only one room in the house to conserve on utilities. Here i have never had a fireplace or a wood burning stove. I am all alone so i don't can because i don't have the cookware i need or the people to share preserving with. Canning to most is just passe' anymore.
Winter is coming and i am at loss because i really don't want to be here no more. My heart and mind is in Philippines where there is less seasonal change than here in Orangeburg.
Getting ready for the seasonal change can be exciting but also tiring. It works better when a family works together to ready the home for the upcoming season. When spring approaches and the house cleaning begins, opening your indoor enviorment to a new warmer day. But now it's time to close down the foundation vents, clean the air filters, checking the furnace is in working order, clean the fireplace/wood stove. seal cracks and make sure the storm windows are closed. Make sure your family clean the house heater, replace the batteries int eh smoke detectors,planting the new crops you can harvest during the winter months.
Ah, yes winter is approaching are you ready? Making ready can make your life/lifestyle the thriftiest.

Doing Business with a Bad Business is Just Bad Business.
Doing Business with a Bad Business is Just Bad Business.
In my life, I come across different businesses. Some are unthrifty to do business with them due to high cost to deal with them and I do not just mean the price tag you pay at the counter. K-Mart® is a thrifty business to deal with in the bottom line due to the fact you go in and buy something and out the door you go and use the product.
1 – 2- 3 and you using the item you bought and that is the way that most places of purchase works, not so with a calling card company called Pringo.com owned by ibasis.
I have to call my family in Philippines and the thriftiest way for others and me is to use a pre-paid calling card. Calling cards are wonderful things you pay $20 and you can phone up to $20 in phone time. You do not get a bill at the end of month and no surprises. You pay how much you need then when the card is empty, the card is empty.
Last Saturday I paid for a $20 card and they gave me $5 card as a bonus. What I did not know is that it was a sham. They hold your money via your debit or credit card until who knows when and then and only will they release the card so you can use it saying they investigate your credit history and other things that they have not listed on their website etc. This is what is called fraud. They have had my money for 5 days and I did not get my 3 hours of talk time like their website promised.
The morel of the story besides never use Pringo.com is being thrifty is not just low of the shelve cost it is also the low cost of easy access cost.
You can get a product from K-Mart® and the cost of time to acquire the product as well plus the gas it tock to get the product etc. that is why buying music on the web can be thrifty due to the fact that you didn’t have to drive to the store and get the product you go to Apple’s® Music website buy a song via your debit or credit card and with in seconds you are listening to music.
With Pringo.com that is not true, you have to wait days before you get the card to make a call.
Reasons why doing business with a place like Pringo.com are just bad business:
1. Misinformation and no disclaimer revealing what hoops you have to jump over to use their product.
2. The department you have to use is only open a short time. 8am – 5pm (most people work during those hours.
3. Dual competing departments and the one doesn’t know what the other one is doing but gets all the complaints but can’t help the customer only the closed department can.
4. The customer is at the will and mercy of the company. Whoever said, “The customer is always right”, did not know about Pingo.com part of ibasis.
5. Not customer friendly but is they are themselves friendly.
Bottom-line is not to do business with companies like Pringo.com that have to many hoops to jump through to use their product.
Your time is worth money. Let say you make $10 an hour at the job you work at. Your other time/free time etc. is also $10 an hour. You time is worth money at work, home or play etc. So let say to do something takes you two hours to use a product your bottom-line cost is $20.
My bottom-line cost for Pringo.com is over $1,200+ due to the fact they have held my money for over five days and yet to give me the phone card.
Be thrifty with your money and do not do businesses that are like the five+ reasons of not doing business with Pingo.com.

I have heard the "R" word 3 times this week, have you too?
I have heard the "R" word 3 times this week, have you?
The “R” word is “recession”. Some forecasters are predicting a harsh winter and a coming recession. I believe it is good to be ready in both cases. This is where Thrifty living can help, for we show others how to live with less, but yet trying to live a fun, sharing life.
In my recent post, I talked about canning/preserving food. I have located a good source of canning jars, which later I will give the source too. You may also acquire them at Sam’s Club at a best “Thrifty Price™”
IF you yet to assess your life it is the time to do it and see how you can eliminate over-baggage and “Thriftyize™” your life and future for your lifelong benefit.
It is the now the time to prepare emergency supplies. First, purchase large Rubbermaid containers etc that is moisture proof. Inside put items, you may need and store in a readily available area and open periodically to check condition of contents.
Below are some of the items you may store in your Emergency Box or boxes.
A to Z medical First Aid Kit
Changes of clothes for all people in your household (including shoes, socks, undies, etc,)
MRE (meal make ready) you may buy online or get at your local Army/Navy Surplus Store.
Current local and extended area phone books
Extra cell batteries that are charged and even an extra cell phone. Pre-Paid Phones are great for this.
Really good Flashlights and plenty of batteries as long a you getting batteries get plenty the other sizes as well, you never know what you may need and can share along the way.
Weather Radios that take batteries and can be plugged in– at least 2 radios one in the box and one ready to be turned on in case of a storm.
Local, regional, and country maps.
Baby food, pet food and cat dog collars, etc even if you do not have a baby or pet someone else you meet along the way may need of these things.
Playing cards and a playing card rules book – it will help pass the time away if needed.
Duct Tape and plenty of it. (Do not get the cheap “Made in China” get the high quality kind that works and sticks.)
Good thick mil good quality trash bags.
Rope etc.
Orange hazard flags and signal flares etc.
And more
Think if 911 happened in you town or block would you be ready?
Always have your car gassed up and repairs made so if you have to go you can go.
Email me your list and I will add to this list to help others be prepared.
Once again “Living a Thrifty Life is living a prepared life™”

“Thriftyized™” Part Two ©2007 (Word and Concept Created by Rabbi Dale) ©2007 by Rabbi Dale All Rights Reserved
In older houses, I have seen grandparents etc. that they had a large walk-in room where food was stored on shelves etc. is called a “pantry”. In today’s houses a pantry in a new or recently built homes are no more than a two foot by two-foot closet, which would not hold two days worth of food. Every house should have a real olde time pantry and an underground storage room.
Houses have poorly designed rooms and not good in-house traffic flow you have to go through the whole house in order to get to the room you want to be. These homes make a house hard to be a thrifty home.
Take a look at your house and see how you can “Thriftyized™” it. Here are some suggestions on how to make your residence livable.
Move tables chairs etc away from the wall at lest four inches, this allows more air flow and help let air not get trapped in the room and makes pockets of hot or cold air.
Keep air filters on your air ventilation changed regularly
Changed vacuum bags before they get completely full.
Look at your stuff – do you really need fifteen pairs of black shoes? "Less
unneeded things you have more room for needed things."™ by Rabbi Dale
Make sure your home owners insurance is up to date along with photos of stuff in the house so to verify what you need when the time comes insurance-wise
Keep things in closets etc off the floor and stored at least 6 inches off the floor to minimized flood damage and rodent damage, especially foodstuffs.
Have a saving account so to deposit five% of wages for building and emergency maintenance.
The idea “Thriftyized™” is my concept of life. Along with your Thrifty Lifestyle, if you take the house etc., where you reside and make it as Thrifty as possible where you do not have to run to the store every five minuets etc. you have a residence and lifestyle that will work with you and not against you™.
More ideas are upcoming, if you have any ideas email me at WMSBlog(AT)yahoo.com Thank you for your imput.
Till next time may you have a Thrifty Living in Carolina and Beyond™

“Thriftyized™” Part One ©2007 (Word and Concept Created by Rabbi Dale) ©2007 by Rabbi Dale All Rights Reserved
Are you ready for the “H” word???
Yes, boys and girls it is Hurricane Season are you ready.
The point of having a great Thrifty Life™ is to have your lifestyle, domicile (i.e. house, apartment)and etc. making it “Thriftyized™” (word created by Rabbi Dale).
The idea “Thriftyized™” is my concept of life. Along with your Thrifty lifestyle, if you take the place, where you reside and make it as Thrifty as possible where you do not have to run to the store every five minuets etc. you have a residence and lifestyle that will work with you and not against you.
“Thriftyized™” is to make your house
Secure – One’s life and thoughts need to be concerned about your own/family/friend’s security, due to the real possibility in today’s world of a home invasion etc.
Energy efficient – one’s life does not need to be deterred by living in a domicile that is not atmospheric comfortable (not too hot nor too cold) but also needs to be the best value per buck.
Food Secure – making sure ones food needs are meet but again at the best value, taking the time to lead ones lifestyle to a more nutritious, healthy, and thrifty eating patterns. Having taken the time to can, buy thrifty from farmer's etc. To store food for own’s family as well as to have enough to share with those who have needs.
Biblical – Making sure the G-D of Abraham, Isaac & Jacob is the head of the home, and that you and your family, friends lifestyle brings honor to Him.
Sanitary – Making sure the home is not just picked up, but also thoroughly clean, free from potential accidents, fire hazards, and enviormental problems/hazards.
Disaster Resistant – You can never make a house 100% Disaster-Free but you can minimize the effects of a disaster by
o Removing all fire hazards,
o Removing structural problems
o Making one’s house resistant to severe weather storms
Being Prepared
Having needed items, equipment ready in-house being prepare for a hurricane and other natural/unnatural disasters; having extra food, water, generator, etc.
Having a family/friends disaster plan
Having actual drills to test readiness. Remember the Boy Scout® motto “Be Prepared”
Financial Fluidity – Living within one’s income and with a little less.
o Having and sticking to a workable budget
o Paying ones tithes
o Having a retirement fund IRA etc.(not Social Security that will probably be bankrupt by the time you retire anyway)
o Having more than enough insurance (Life, Health, Fire, Property, Vehicle, etc.) Buying in a group to get a better thrifty value. Lifelong Non-smokers, Non-Drinkers get better premiums (give up smoking & alcohol drinking its unhealthy and not thrifty.)

To me the one important facet to having a great “Thrifty Living”™2007
To me the one important facet to having a great “Thrifty Living”™2007 (™By Rabbi Dale) is to can what your have grown in your garden or have bought from a farmer or farmer’s market.
I am proof that men also can can too. It does take time/labor but instead of watching the young and the stupid on TV you along with family and friends can secure your collective thriftiness and future food.
This is the time of year here in Carolinas and Beyond™ that you can can fresh produce. (Is there and echo in here? Lol) Get it? “can can” Lol.
To have a ready supply of veggies alternatively instead of the store etc. you can also have an indoor garden grown in pots to have veggies etc. all year. If you are able and zoning allows it, you can have your own greenhouse or if you cannot build, build an extra family room and use it as an indoor greenhouse. In today’s age of terrorism and bad Communist China products, this is a safer way to go.
Mason Jars is the only jars I have used. There may be some cheaper from Communist China etc. but if you been reading my blogs I steer away from Communist China and their products that have been known to kill pets and humans.
North Dakota Extension has a lot of good info and well as other places, but here is are some links that can helps you on your way to a great camming future.

Today is my first blog since my accident. For those who do not know I was walking to minister at the First Baptist Church Soup Kitchen when a car went through a stop sign and hit me.
Today is also the first day in a year that I had my computer on. I no longer have to walk miles to use a free public access computer
I am just thankful to be alive and healing. I still feel miserable in body and soul.
So what am I going to blog about today? Well it is a good day about reaching out to a thrifty life in order to make your life more secure. You cannot overdraw on the funds you do not have so you need to live a life on the funds you do have and in order to do that you need to live within your means.
My life is hard to live within my means because I do not have regular income like others and do not have any family that is still living. I am handicap and poor but I do not draw any type of welfare check etc. so living thrifty is a must do for me.
The first thing to do to establish a thrifty lifestyle is to assess your life and true needs. The true needs are you have to have a place to live, eat, gainful employment, and yes even you must have leisure time so you do not go postal.
Take the time with your love ones and devise a plan to become thriftier. Living Thrifty is not easy but it is not hard as well and as you walk the life, it will become second skin to you. Read this column and see helpful insights how you can have a Thrifty Lifestyle.

I was walking to minister at our Soup Kitchen at First Baptist Church here in Orangeburg, SC where I have been ministering for over 5 yrs &....
Well yesterday was not a Thrifty Day for me and this post may be a little off topic but here it goes.
I was walking to minister at our Soup Kitchen/Community Kitchen at First Baptist Church here in Orangeburg, South Carolina where I have been giving the message of hope for over 5 years and I was hit by a vehicle. I ended up in the traffic lane about 10 feet were I started from. The black female I will not say here name must have been on the cell phone etc.
I waited for the ambulance that never came and the police where more in the hyped up masculine mood for they where looking for an escaped convict. It happened right across the street where King Clyburn is to have his Transportation palace on Russell.
I didn’t get here name or anything so I may have to pay for the medical bill by myself since I have no insurance and pay for stuff my self.
I ended up at the hospital after the soup kitchen.
They the radiotech took a lot of “sexy” pics of my ankle and knees. Lol.
I tried to go to the Family Health Center but they wouldn’t admit me saying the emergency room at TRMC Hospital was where I needed to go. At Family Health Center I would have only had to pay a thrifty price of $20 but now I may have to pay a $1,000.
I am really in pain today and I spent thrifty getting a box of Aleve™ 24 Tablets at Bi-Lo. Where the name is they Bi Lo (w) and Sell High. But it was under $4 bucks and I hope I got the best thrifty deal. I don’t like buying generic in pain killers off the self, I just feel unknowing if it’s really a good product.
I had some kind of reflux attack I ate outside and I could barely breathe and it seemed I had a bubble of gas coming up my esophagus. I got this a little at the Soup kitchen after the accident yesterday and told the Physician (who also was Jewish like me.) but at the time he didn’t see it as life threatening, but now it seems like life threatening to me it scared me, and it happen just 30 minuets ago.
All in all I praise G-D I am still alive, Praise G-D!!!
Well the moral of the story is if you want to live thrifty lives don’t get in an accident and have to go to the hospital.
It’s hard to live a thrifty life if you don’t get enough employment to get insurance. People think I am to handicap to work so in Orangeburg you have to live thrifty of you perish from the earth.
Now I don’t know how I am going to pay for the Hospital bill I try to pay $10 a month for the rest of my life I better live till I am 393 years old, Lol.
I hope you have a great day and well try to stay on topic next time, Lol. And please stay out of unthrifty accidents, Lol
Shalom till next time,
Rabbi Dale

Get Ready - Make sure your house is ready for Winter
Now is the time to go over and check to see if all the rat/mouse holes are closed. Not a pleasant idea but a must do before winter is amongst us. The time is now to clean and throw out junk. Look for air leaks etc.
While it’s still warm enough to look around make sure anything that needs repair to make your house comfy and safe for winter is done.
Simple advice but a Now must do.
Shalom,

Best Water is Almost Free Water
Best Water is Almost Free Water
Many people buy pallets of bottled water throughout the year but if you just simply buy a really good water purifier in-house and use tap water, you can almost pay nothing on your bottled water.
When you have to pay 50 cents or more for the water or $1 via the vending machine you spend hordes of money on something that you pay only pennies per 10 gallons.
You can buy empty water bottles/containers and refill them or ever reuse the “Augafina™ bottle just wash the inside every so often.
Thrifty living means making better choices in your buying-style and changes in your lifestyle.

I was at my bank’s customer service and while we were waiting another person talked about washing clothes...
I was at my bank’s customer service and while we were waiting another person talked about washing clothes and not having the time to haul them to the Laundromat. So here is my personal Thrifty Living way or doing those things and saving time and money.
Manual Washing Machine.
A thrifty way to save money, time and gas if you don’t have a washing machine in-house is to find/buy a 5-7 gallon plastic bucket. Clean out really well!!!
It’s really good for like your underwear etc.
You can get a 5 gallon bucket from a Paint contractor (make sure you get one that held Latex/water-based paint.) or from the paint store. You may get them for free if you ask nicely or sent in your 97 year old grandmother for it, Lol Clean out bucket really well or try to get a never used bucket. Also having three or four of them can save more time, if used at the same time.
Washing Instructions:
1. Just place it under the faucet in the bathtub and run cold or hot water add laundry soap (preferably the liquid kind) and let soak till you get home after work of overnight.
2. When you’re ready to rinse. Before you dump soapy solution use feet or hands (PLEASE BE CAREFUL) I usually sit on commode and use hand since I am handicap. Push your hand up and down to agitate clothes fro a minute or two and then dump entire contents into bathtub. (If you haven’t cleaned bathtub in a while its good prudent to do so before you wash clothes.
3. Rinse inside bucket then fill bucket with clean water till overflowing then but clothes in and agitate them again, dump clothes out and wring them and rinse bucket and refill bucket aging with clean water again and then agitate clothes and again and repeat #3 again for two to three more times. More if needed due to dirtiness of clothes.
It’s good to have a line or bar in the middle of the bathtub so you can let the clothes drip while repeating #3
4. Take clothes outside to dry or you may hang them inside in a will not destroy the floor by dripping clothes “area”.
5. Iron as needed.
6. Walla you saved money on not using electricity for washing, drying, and driving to the Laundromat etc. and the time you saved as well.
Wow you are Thrifty!!!!

Yesterday was the hottest day of the year. So what do I want to blog about today?
Winter is coming R U Ready?
Yesterday was the hottest day of the year. So what do I want to blog about today?
Get ready for old man winter! That’s right it will soon be Winter Brrrrrrrr!
Now is the time to go over your living area (i.e. house, apartment, condo, and mansion) and see how you can winterize it. To winterize it is like to summerize it and see how you can cool or heat the area economical, thrifty. Many live in an older home and the best and thriftiest way to winterize your windows is to but storm windows in or if you want a thriftier way is to but a sheet of plexiglass in and overlay and secure it with a wood trim sealed with chalking. If you trap air in between plexiglass and the original window you also trap air cold and warm air from escaping and thereby saving you money in heating and cooling cost.
Most people realize it cost more to heat a house than to cool a house. So get ready for winter.
CAUTION: Don’t seal up a window you may have to use for a fire escape.
To be a thrifty person you got to be like the squirrel and be ready fro winter. There are many things you can do and as the next few days go by I will explain ways to get ready for the coming cold.
Until then stay cool and drink a lot of ice in water.

“Living Cheap” is not the way to have a thrifty life.
“Living Cheap” is not the way to have a real Thrifty Life. A young woman approximately early twenty something, with a fairly decent job and paycheck writes about living cheap, why I don’t know except that she fell under the spell of the little plastic card. I have read her stuff but it like I was at her age. I read a book “Champagne living on a beer budget: How to buy the best for less” by Mike Ferguson; Marilyn Ferguson Published by, Putnam [1968] and I proceeded to try to live a thrifty life with a lot of trial and error. Lol!
What I write about in my “Thrifty Living in Carolina & Beyond” is decades of actual experience of living a thrifty life subtracting the pit falls I have blunder into which the 20 something seems to be doing right now. She just discovers about saltines and honey which someone introduced her to put forgot to tell her about adding peanut butter. Now what I would do is go to the Sara Lee bread company thrift store and buy some real whole wheat and have a peanut butter and honey sandwich which is good nourishment and very thrifty. The cost of honey is high but per portion the price is very thrifty. You may look at the other in-store whole wheat bread compare to the Sara Le brand you may get a better price per pound. But go to the Sara Lee thrift store they have more than just bread. They have cookies, peppermint balls at reduced prices.
But if you can find an Arnold bread or Pepperidge Farms bakery thrift store you get really great bread at a really thrifty price.
I spend a lot of time which college students as well as graduates and they are like I was and thought they knew everything and fall flat on their face.
I hope she learns to read blogs of wisdom like mine and others that can show her how to have a great life by “Thrifty Living” not by living cheap. You learn to make wise choices as well as group bulk buying power and life can be fun.
Oh P.S. while Saltines is good I rather have a “Ritz”

Buy in Bulk and close to the source
Buy in Bulk and close to the source is one of the best ways to save money and live thrifty.
Many food stores including the Piggley – Wiggly here in Orangeburg on Russell Street and Columbia Road have a bulk “Family Pack” that you can say money per pound.
Case In Point: When I was a little lad my father bought into this meat plan. We saved a lot of money but we also had to rent a temporary freezer locker and buy a new trunk freezer. We ate of the meat from the meat plan for over a year.
You can buy a whole steer by yourself or with others and you save more than you can at the store.
Bottom-line is if you can buy at the source and in bulk you can save money. This way is more labor intensive but if you want to live thriftier you going to have some trade off’s.
So if you can find a cattle ranch that butchers too or a meat packing house you should be able to save oodles of money.
If you like chicken, Columbia Farms is in West Columbia and you may be able to buy in bulk boxes. Let me know and let me know how you have save money and I may share it with my readers.
Till then,
I hope you all a Thrifty life that Yeshua/Jesus promised in John 10:10 if you have any questions or comments you and email me at wmsblog”AT”yahoo.com

So if you can find a cattle ranch that butchers too or a meat packing house you should be able to save oodles of money.
If you like chicken, Columbia Farms is in West Columbia and you may be able to buy in bulk boxes. Let me know and let me know how you have save money and I may share it with my readers.
Till then,
I hope you all a Thrifty life that Yeshua/Jesus promised in John 10:10 if you have any questions or comments you and email me at wmsblog”AT”yahoo.com

A fellow blogger I watch his blogs wrote a piece about Stone soup. http://thehomelessguy.wordpress.com/2007/07/21/stone-soup/ I don’t know where he got the story but the bottom line is so true. If everybody helped each other we all can live thriftier and help each other from being homeless and poor.
Let me make this perfectly clear. I don’t mean make everyone share stuff for that is communism. But out of those who volunteer of their own free will give and help.
If you can join with others in your place of worship (church or synagogue), neighborhood, etc.; life will be so much better.

Having Fun Living Thrifty.
Having Fun Living Thrifty.
People think that if you live thrifty you have to live without and have no fun doing it, is so far from the truth.
Sure you have to make some hard choices and some of those choices are not going to be pleasant when you have allowed yourself to be on a merry go round of spending etc.
When you stop and look at your life with your loved ones you can have fun making your life better and thriftier.
Case in Point: When I was a little lad I kept hearing the words “It’s better to give than to receive and I had no idea what that meant. As I grew older and became adult with a job I was able to bless others with things they needed. Some of the items I gave them were out of my own closets and effort. The look on their face was enough payment for me and I give G-D all the praise and glory.
The financial etc. weights come off when you lessen your materialism and make your life thriftier. Sometimes it is hard to give up items you have so long and that you have an attachment to it. But remember the goal is to make you life more thrifty and in the end more productive and when you don’t have to work to death to have a life then you start to realize that “Hey I am having fun living Thrifty in Carolina and Beyond.

Living Thrifty Doesn’t Mean Living Cheap!
Living Thrifty Doesn’t Mean Living Cheap!
Many people think that to live thrifty means you must live cheap or buy cheap, this is so far from the truth.
Case in point: buying from Communist China via a “dollar store” You are buying an item(s) cheap but the longevity of the product life is of a short duration.
I have bought two $1 flashlights at a local dollar store and I am on my way to buy a third. I use the flashlight to walk the dog as well as other places I need to use it in an old house that a lamp is not close by. I have or will have bought three flashlights in three weeks. That is over the year I have to buy fifty two flashlights in the length of the year. That is “Not!” living thrifty. You can buy a high quality flashlight a whole lot cheaper and most certainly a lot thriftier.
Due to news reports we are now seeing that china is trying to kill us off as well as our beloved pets.
The point of all this is when you go to purchase something, maybe you shouldn’t buy from China but look at USA or other country products.
Living thrifty means looking wisely at the purchase(s) you make, as well as not to buy/do without certain things decisions that you can do without certain things at this time.
I hope you all a Thrifty life that Yeshua/Jesus promised in John 10:10 if you have any questions or comments you and email me at wmsblog”AT”yahoo.com

Thrifty Living in Carolina & Beyond: When not to spend money!
Living thrifty people knows when to spend money and when not to spend money. Here is an example when to "Not to spend money."
Friends of mine are on vacation and where else do they go but to Myrtle Beach in July. This is not the “Thriftest” time to go to Myrtle Beach and stay in a hotel etc. As any, Carolinian knows that you wait until after Labor Day to stay at MB. They admitted that it would cost them an arm and a leg and maybe a vital organ or three. I like Myrtle Beach in September when the weather is still nice.

When staying at Myrtle Beach to me the best and thriftiest place to go is the Huntington Beach State Park and camp out. True it is a way from all the action but the area has many sites to see.
I was a surrogate father on a Royal Rangers’ Father and son weekend. It was a cool November but the full moon was out as we took the boys on a beach walk at night were a grand and inspirational time. So save up your pennies and plan a time at Myrtle Beach and maybe even the Huntington Beach in September or after Labor Day till Memorial Day.
State Park, you will be glad you did when you waited until September. You may call (843) 237-4440 for further information. If this phone number is wrong then please inform me. To go to their website Click Here.
A note of sadness, the Myrtle Beach Pavilion Amusement Park is no more, in my opinions thanks to greed and over development. Myrtle Beach is just not the same as it used to be years ago. If you want to see, what Myrtle Beach used to look like then go to Kill Devil Hill/Kitty Hawk, North Carolina a great place to go.
