Controlling your spending is hard to do. On every episode of Frugal Friends, we'll try to help you gain a little more control on one aspect of the countless directions your money is being pulled toward through frugality and a few laughs. If you're trying to save money, spend less, adopt minimalism, pay off debt or reach financial independence, we think you'll like the show.

Frugal Friends Podcast

In 2006, everything just felt simpler. Fast forward to 2026, and it feels like you’re paying more for everything and getting less in return. Is that reality or is nostalgia just making us believe it? In this episode we’re looking at what your money actually bought you 20 years ago vs. what it buys now and why so many of us feel like the deal quietly changed.
