Welcome to Bitches on a Budget, the blog for modern women working their way through the hardest economic times of their lives. This site is the place for straight talk, fresh ideas, and, most importantly, humor. How else do you survive tough times? With laughter. Not only will you feel better, but honey, you’ll save a bundle on therapy and plastic surgery. Nothing elevates a bitch’s mood or look like a smile.
This is also the place to connect with your inner bitch. We speak our mind and lay it all out. You won’t find any coyness about money or what we think here. Clothes, grooming, travel, transportation, entertainment, food… we’ve got the secrets and aren’t afraid to share.

We never deny ourselves great food. Nope, us Bitches on a Budget believe wholeheartedly in yummy, satisfying, healthy, occasionally indulgent food. Our favorite food mantra comes from Julia Child: “Everything in moderation, including...
Does this ever happen to you? You undress and your partner’s overwhelmed, flushed, delighted. He smiles appraisingly. Then, as his eyes land on your lower region, his face falls and he says, “Nice, but I wish you sparkled a little...
We never give up. (It can be kind of an annoying habit or a great strength–depends who you ask.) Anyway, we have this vision– the greatest piece of installation art on a Facebook fan page ever! We like to live without rules, be on the...

OK, he...
