Internet Users Share Their Two Cents on the Fine Line Between Being Frugal and Being Cheap

Next on our list of things where it costs less to buy quality is tires. It can really be a wrench to buy tires, because it’s such a huge pile of money all at once.

Also, this post contains a really important reminder for those of us who are still thinking about boots: you can get your shoes repaired. Back in the day, that was common; if something was wrong with your shoes, rather than throwing them out and getting a new pair, you took them to a repair shop. And that’s still an option. There are still shoe repair shops out there.
