Open Letter to Alice at Going Green

May 15th, 2008. Filed under: Finance & Fitness Fridays.

Alice,

I’ve just come from your blog, Going Green, where I tried to write a comment.  It seems that I can’t do that unless I’m part of Google.  That’s why I elected to write here and hope you’ll pick up on the link. 

The first part of my comment had to do with Nature Made vitamins.  I buy them at Walgreen’s when they have their frequent buy one, get one free sales.  CVS does this at times, but the frequency and quantity available at Walgreen’s is much better.

The second part of the comment was regarding the “guest post” that Being Frugal posted.  This post, original name, Save on Postage, was published here at Sunny Island on April 18th.  You have a good point about the amount of savings regarding the Forever stamps, but if you read some of my posts you will see that many of them are written tongue in cheek.  I did think that the suggestions to use flat rate mailings and sending out heavier items before the rate increase was valid.  I send a lot of boxes to one of my charity groups and did mail out many prior to May 12.  Thank you for reading my post and leaving a comment even if it was not here at the original post.

I did read through some of your e-mails and subscribed to your blog.  I, too, am trying to convert to a more frugal and greener lifestyle.  I’m also new to this blogging and have not yet figured out the mechanics.  As soon as I do, I will be having the option of subscribing.  You’re welcome to join me as we travel the road of frugality and going green.
