Simplicity
I had to run some errands early today and passed by Goodwill. I really wanted to stop and see if there was anything interesting but the truth is I don't need anything. Since I've been reading some frugal books I guess I can be described as a person who tries to live a more simple life than a frugal one (although I do have frugal tendencies).

I don't buy a newspaper every Sunday for the coupons because I don't need to buy groceries or household supplies every week. And is a deal really a good deal if you don't need it? I completely understand the concept of stocking up. But as a single person I don't eat or use up stuff very fast and so I can't stock up too much or the food goes bad/I run out of space.

In regards to clothing, I dress pretty simple/preppy so most of my clothes don't go out of style. There's no need for me to look at thrift stores for clothes all of the time-I just don't need them.

These are just some of the thoughts I've been having lately on simplicity vs. frugal living.
