spending-money-by-Jake-WasdinThe recession has changed a lot of us and the way we are spending money. Many of us have changed for the better since we’ve had to learn new spending habits.

A recent Decitia study shows 4 types of consumers emerging from this recession. In effect, there are 4 types of spenders:

  • Pragmatic Spenders
  • Apathetic Materialists
  • Involuntary Penny-Pinchers
  • Steadfast Frugalists

Each has a different approach to spending money.

Not everyone in each group likes the new spending habits they’ve had to adopt.

So, which are you? A frugalist, a penny pincher, a spender, or a materialist?…

My favorite things to write about are topics that have to do with pregnancy, weddings, saving money, living green, and life with dogs. When I’m not writing, I love to spend time with my husband, read, create 3D artwork and Native American beadwork.

About Us

LynnetteAlways on the lookout for a good bargain, I consider myself a frugal person -- but not cheap. And not afraid to spend money on the things that matter. I like to share good deals with others when I find them. One of my favorite ways to save money is to reuse items in ways other than their intended purpose -- so I write a lot about outside-the-box ideas that most people wouldn't think of! When I'm not saving money or looking for good deals, you'll find me at the corner of Good News & Fun Times as publisher of The Fun Times Guide (32 fun & helpful websites).

AndreaI have been a certified tightwad striving for financial freedom since I became pregnant with my first child -- and I decided to find a way to stay home with him full-time. I enjoy sharing my personal experiences in my journey back to financial health and planning for a future -- which will include sending 2 kids to college and early retirement.
