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,
Till next time, Mazal Tov,

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.
Till next time, Mazal Tov,

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.
Working parents those who had to go to work to keep a roof over their head etc, never was able to go either to college or to those who have some college, and never was able to finish.)
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.
Write to me and let me know what you think.

Countdown 10 - 9 -8 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1- Happy ThanksGiving
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

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.

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.

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.
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,
Mazal Tov,
