Frugality Fatigue

Well,it's been a year since the economy started crumbling. I'm sure it started earlier than then but last October is when I really started to see the effects. The layoffs, the fear, the belt tightening...Now, economists are saying things are getting better & sales are looking up. But, are people just returning to their old ways? This past year has scared me into not shopping and really watching what we buy. Use up old things. Try to fix it before buying a new one, etc. The mentality that our Grandparents & Parents have & that our generation probably just learned last year.

Here is an article about how everyone is tired of being frugal & are they are falling back into old habits? Or have we really learned our lesson & will the fear of last year stick with us now?
