Frugal Friday File 2019, week 40...

Successes:
1.  Carey wanted something to listen to on our road trip.  I perused the library website and downloaded a selection of books that I thought we both might like.

2.  Packed high protein snacks from home for when the hungries might strike in the car.

3.  I had considered renting an RV for this trip so we could bring Rudy with us, but decided the rental cost (plus pet deposit), plus the extra fuel it would require, and additional camping site fees would vastly outpace the cost of taking our car (with its good gas mileage) and staying in hotels.

4.  Jared is keeping Rudy for us.

5.  Though I'm not really a breakfast person, we are both taking advantage of free hotel breakfasts.  I'm making sure to choose healthy servings of fresh fruit and oatmeal to make up for less healthy choices later in the day.  The big breakfast is holding us through lunch and then we are just having an early supper, so one paid meal out per day.
