Welcome to the Procrastinator’s Edition of the Festival of Frugality! We’d like to thank the Festival for giving us the chance to host.
With tax day coming up this week, we decided to dedicate this festival to all of those who are waiting until the last minute to file (while thinking to themselves, “Why do I wait until the last minute every year?”). Simply add the word “tomorrow” to the beginning or end of each of these article titles to read them through the eyes of a procrastinator.
If this is your first time coming to our site, check out our Thank Your Bank Sweepstakes to be entered for a chance to win $1,000, sign up for our newsletter or follow us on Twitter.
