[quote=Anonymous]HHI $850,000 Save: one car household, car is 13 years old and paid. Have minimalist attitude, not too many clothes or shoes or toys, etc. allow inlaws to buy almost all of kids' clothes even if some aren't exactly my taste. Cut my kids hair. Tie tons of vacations into DH work (like conferences in nice places) to save on airfare and get free hotel stays. I love thrift stores, Craigslist and neighborhood listservs for kids toys and other items. Cook all our meals, all of them. Only buy kids presents for birthdays and Christmas, no random toys all the time. Splurge. We shop almost exclusively at whole foods. We sent kids to private schools. We are not cheap when it comes to gifts, esp for relatives weddings, etc. we live in a nice neighborhood a few blocks from the metro. Our house is a bit of a fixer upper, but location location location,[/quote]
