Laurie Hise is the founder of Passionate Penny Pincher, a budgeting blog founded in 2009. As a busy mom of three and wife for 28 years, Hise has been dedicated to a frugal lifestyle, strategically shopping and making the most of every coupon and sale ad she could find. She’s passionate about helping families gain control of their homes and finances, and truly believes everyone can take control of their finances when given the right tools.

16 years later, Passionate Penny Pincher has saved millions of consumers money on their groceries, Amazon deals, and Dollar Tree DIY projects, as well as encouraging thousands of people to cook simple, frugal meals at home.

  • Smart Summer Shopping: Save Big by Buying Early
    Laurie advises buying outdoor furniture, grilling essentials, travel gear, and home cooling items before summer to save 30-50%. Warehouse clubs, home improvement stores, and online retailers offer early discounts. Laurie notes, "Outdoor furniture can be 40% cheaper and grilling supplies 30% less expensive in May."
  • Declutter and Save: Stop 'Paying Rent' for Unused Items
    Laurie highlights two signs you're 'paying rent' for clutter: overflowing closets and long-term storage units. She advises donating unworn clothes and auditing storage units to eliminate fees. Laurie says, "Reclaim your space and finances by decluttering today!" Use space-saving hangers and clear storage totes for better organization.
