Today's frugal thing was finding a cute sweatshirt at Walmart, on clearance for $2. They didn't have my size, so I bought a size smaller, hoping my diet will allow me to shrink into it soon. When I got home, I decided to try it on, and Surprise -- It fit!!

For a frugal dinner, I pulled some leftover Easter ham out of the freezer and it's cooking with cabbage, an onion and a splash of apple cider vinigar.

Now, for unfrugal: It looks like we'll be shopping for a new washing machine. The poor old thing has had incontinence for quite a while, but this morning it had a heart attack -- shaking, and banging and pounding, until it finally died. It's not worth fixing anymore. So we'll just let it rest in peace, and go shopping.

I'm thinking of getting a front-loading washer. Does anyone have one? Are they worth the extra money?
