The End

Fox Cities Cheapster was begun as an effort to help my friends, family, and community gain the skills to live more thrifty lives. To that end, this blog has been successful. I've provided the connections and skills for my readers to go on from this blog and still save money.
Much of the information I have provided other bloggers also write about. My favorite local site, Green Bay Consumer, is the very best reference I can leave you with. Jennifer covers much of what I have covered and much more. My only wish is that she had a little bit more for Fox Valley readers specific to our area which no other writer seems to reference.Other useful blogs and links are referenced on my Favorite Savings Sites page. Remember that you can also reference my Printable Coupon Sites when you print out your monthly coupons.
I had hoped to continue writing this blog for at least a year, but I have not been able to find the time to effectively produce this blog without sacrificing a great deal of my family time and other comittments. The other day, I overheard my daughter ask my husband, "Why is Mom on the computer all the time?" I don't want my kids to grow up with the image of my face staring at a computer screen as their memory of me. These years with them are much to precious for that.
I've appreciated the time you, my reader, has spent reading this blog and walking this journey with me.
