I’m organizing the first ever Frugal Fe$tival to celebrate BargainBabe.com’s six-month anniversary and to launch the exciting expansion I’ve been hinting at (which will be revealed next week…fingers crossed).
The Frugal Fe$tival is a one-day physical gathering of frugal folks who want to have fun sharing their frugal lifestyles. Save the date – the Frugal Fe$tival is Sunday, July 26, 2009 in Los Angeles. Here is why you should come.
- It’s free
- It’s going to be fun
- The first 50 people to arrive will win a free Bargain Babe T-shirt
- You can get free financial advice by signing up for a 15-minute consultation with a financial adviser
- You can trade your unwanted coupons for ones you want
- You can enter the frugal contest – the top three frugal tips will win prizes
- Each adult will receive 10 free tickets to enter raffles of their choice
- Raffle prizes will include gift cards, financial consultations, books, T-shirts and cash!
- Find out more about the mysterious expansion Julia has been talking about on BargainBabe.com!
If you’d like to get involved as a volunteer or sponsor, please email julia@bargainbabe.com. Lots more information to come!

You mean Sunday, July 28th right? The 26th is Friday…
June 23rd, 2009 at 11:35 am
Nope, I really do mean Sunday, July 26! Hope you can join us Stella!

Hey Julia,
Nothing for your non-local readers?

SOUNDS FESTIVELY FRUGAL! or FESTIVRUGAL! OR FESTRUGAL! We’re hoping to make it! AND very curious about your new mystery endeavor!
June 23rd, 2009 at 4:41 pm
I’ll be there!
June 23rd, 2009 at 9:07 pm
Sounds Frugalicious! I hope to be able to make it as well.

Julia,
Don’t forget to give us the address of the Frugal Festival Sunday, July 26, 2009 in Los Angeles.

LA is a huge area…..what part of LA will it be in?

I think Stella was looking at her June, not July, calendar. The 26th of July is definitely a Sunday. I’m afraid I’m already booked to go on a RH outing to Glendale for lunch and a production of “Footloose.” Otherwise, I’d join you. Hope it’s a great success!
June 26th, 2009 at 8:46 am
Oh, darn. We’ll miss you Ellie!
June 26th, 2009 at 8:58 am
Fantastic – so glad you’ll be there!
June 26th, 2009 at 9:00 am
Sorry to disappoint, Aniruddha. But I can’t be everywhere at once

How about an online raffle for your Right Coast fans?
June 29th, 2009 at 1:26 pm
Doing an online raffle for non-locals is a great idea! I may not be able to pull that off by July 26, but perhaps it could be a follow-up event.
Thanks for the idea, Nancy!
