I was blessed with frugal parents too. I can relate to most of them and we use them now too. The paint tip was a new one however. I will have to try that some time. Fun post!

And it is awesome that he taught you some great frugal tips growing up! My parent's always ordered water when we went out, which wasn't very often, but it has stuck with me all these years!<br />Toni I love the picture of your dad with the kids!

And really useful ideas,too. I haven't gotten brave enough to cut my daughter's hair yet but my husband shaves his own head so I guess that evens things out. :) Father Does Know Best! Great post.

And no kids meals! We had five kids in our family, and he once explained to us that we could eat out a little more often if we shared fries and drank water, or we could eat out way less and order drinks or kids meals. We all voted to do it his way. :) My dad never let us order anything but water when we ate out. And no kids meals!
