Thanks for the support, econ_env. We're not making money off the blog; just trying to offer helpful money saving ideas for fellow grad student families.
A fellow JD/MBA friend of mine and I just started The Provident PhD, a blog written by and for graduate student families to share ideas for saving money during the financial gauntlet of grad school. Check it out and give us your creative ideas for making ends meet, particularly if you're managing grad school with a spouse and children.
