Summary

Amanda Brownlow of Hello Brownlow talks about what to do instead of shopping Episode 2715: What to do Instead of Shopping - Minimalist Lifestyle Benefits by Amanda Brownlow Amanda is passionate about doing things herself. She loves to see how far she can stretch a dollar, minimize her home, and make her budget (and her life) more efficient. She only writes about budgeting and minimizing tricks that she has tried so that she knows that they work. She is on her journey to financial independence with her Little Guy in tow, and while maintaining a budget that allows her to save almost HALF of her income, she’s still able to go on adventures around the country. When she’s not running after her one-year-old, she’s writing about and thinking about new ways to make her life more efficient and bring simplicity to everything she does.
