I'm really proud of my parents. (Kind of a dumb story but I just needed to share)

That is certainly not a dumb story. I am very proud of you and love that you take care of your parents. I wish I could help. Do your parents need coupons if they are interested in starting to use, I would send you some to share with them.

I am also sorry about your break-in, I hope you are okay? what an awful and instrusive thing to happen. I hope you had insurance and you are not alone going through this. Do not hesitate to ask friends and family for help. From this post no doubt you are there for them as well.

Let me know if you need anything, I'm sure they did not steal your coupons but if soemthing happened I could be glad to help too in that respect.

Thank you for sharing your story and it is wonderful that you are there for your parents as they were there for you. You are a great daughter and we are proud of you. Take care.

I actually felt a sigh of relief when I was cleaning up my apartment the days after and I realized my coupon collection was still here. I actually split half of all the coupons I get with my parents. So it was good for me that they were still there. My mom always says she loves going to the mail box and seeing envelopes from me. haha.




Thanks to everyone for all of your kind words. You're all incredibly sweet human beings. Tis why I love this board so much.

Thanks for sharing your touching story. Your parents sound lovely and you are obviously loving. I hope they continue to manage financially, and I hope you're coping ok after your break-in (what's wrong with people?!).

Nice story! My Mom is the one who instilled frugalness in me, mostly in the form of cooking from scratch.
