This was the motto that helped people survive during the Great Depression. It encapsulated the mentality of the era: making the most out of what you had, and not being wasteful. Instead of just tossing out something that was "past its prime," people would repair or repurpose it until it was completely used up. These Depression-era frugal living practices aren’t just about saving money; they reflect a profound resilience and creativity in the face of hardship. Many of these habits continue to work today, and in this video I share several tips that can help you to live more frugally and reduce costs. #DebtFreeDana #FrugalLiving #greatdepression Outlet Timer https://amzn.to/3OlZT0w My Shirt Shop https://www.redbubble.com/people/DebtFreeDesigns How We Stopped Living Paycheck to Paycheck https://youtu.be/HFofLtL_Dqo Pregnant?

Hi, I'm Dana, and I'm DEBT FREEEEE! I'm raising four kids on a budget (along with my husband), after paying off over $98,000 in consumer debt, which included student loans, credit cards and a very expensive sewer pipe. I work in Corporate Finance, but have been sharing frugal living tips and tricks on YouTube since 2012.

My KEY to Getting Out of Debt: Never quit. It's worth the fight to the finish, no matter how long the road. You got this!
