Frugal Living Taken to New Extremes

I have heard and read so much about frugal living lately. I just had to share some tips from FruGal and a few of my own thoughts on the ideas.
1. "Sell Your Kids" - Go on, you know that someone out there wants them and is willing to pay (almost)top dollar for them...if not, be a good sport and throw in a two-for-one offer!
2. "Give up Grooming" - It is all a bunch of commercial rubbish that has been drilled into your head by a bunch of Old Bald Men. And don't you know you have always wondered just how liberating it would be to wear elastic stretch pants to work once you have quit the gym and removed all of the mirrors from your house!
3. "Quit wearing underwear" - it doesn't matter how many pair you get in the "valu-pak"; there is more value in "spending nothing to wear nothing". Just think of the reduction in laundry!
Ok...maybe this has gone off the deep-end of frugality...but at least we can still laugh about it all!
