That’s right – the link post is moving from Saturday to…well this week it will be Friday. 
We’ve decided to do the link post during the week and cut back on one of the regular posts. Summer hours!Â
First off – Squawkfox did a very creative and exciting job on the stripped down, bare necessities version of Festival of Frugality – her best move was picking Mr. Cheap’s Everyman’s guide to earning $30/month in passive income post as a “tighty whitey”. If nothing else then please go and check out the photos and find out what a “tighty whitey” is.
Clever Dude wrote a rather amusing and gross story about something that happened to him on the subway – he’s no Bernhard Goetz but at least he stands up for himself – way to go Mike!
Where Does All My Money Go did a neat video on how to read a stock quote – it’s a beginner type tutorial but if you want to hear the soothing sound of Preet’s silky voice then check it out.
Million Dollar Journey is wondering if BCE is a buying opportunity.
I had a guest post on Get Rich Slowly this week called 11 tips for first-time home buyers. It was a lot of fun – great traffic and a ton of comments.
The Personal Finance Network had our first group project – frugal summer fun. Here are the posts in the project:
- Squawkfox has 10 free ways to get fit this summer.
- MoneyNing has some suggestions to beat the heat.
- Clever Dude may not have kids yet but he got a few ideas recently about frugal summer ideas for kids after having some relatives visit.
- Canadian Capitalist has some money movies to watch.
- Blunt Money wrote about staycations (vacation at home).
- I had some tips for packing light.

Thanks for the mention! I like the variety in scheduling, it keeps the readers on their toes.
Well squawkfox says in her comments there that she bought the undies, so if he asks nicely maybe she might send them to mr cheap. He might have to explain it to his room-mates though ….
Thanks for the link! Cheers.
Yeah, if people are sending me underwear, I’d hope they wouldn’t be tighty whities…
@ Four Thank you for linking back to the Festival of Frugality: Bare Necessities Edition!
@guinness905 Indeed. I had to buy the tighty whities. My “better half’s” undies are neither tight nor white. He’s more of a grey boxer-brief kind of guy.
@Mr. Cheap Be careful what you ask for.
Is that your way of saying I have a face for radio?
Thanks for the link – have a great weekend!
Preet – well, I didn’t want to actually say it but….
