Festival of Frugality #22

Well I've had less time to read blogs lately so I've been feeling a bit out of the loop and hosting this week's Festival of Frugality was like old home week and I learned of some new (to me) blogs to boot. I also learned several things from all the posts, such as: you can purchase coupons on ebay (I *told* you I've been out of the loop!), who sticks the sliver of soap on a new bar (check out Seattle Simplicity's post and the comments reveal all!) and which beer kit sounds like a good deal (oatmeal stout? I say BRING IT!). Without further blabbage I bring you all thirty-three post of the twenty-second Festival of Frugality:
