My super-sneaky strategy to avoid writing content while on vacation: Send you to read another frugal Richmond blog.

I had the pleasure of meeting John & Sherry, the couple behind This Young House, at Social Media Club Richmond’s June event. If the name sounds familiar, you may recognize them from pieces they’ve written for R-Home, as well as appearances in a number of national publications.

Starting with the renovation of their Richmond home, the Petersiks blog about all things DIY and design. And they do it with a very cost-conscious spin – Check out their “Feelin’ Thrifty” and “Steals & Deals” categories. They’ve posted reviews of a couple Richmond thrift stores: Diversity Thrift and the Love of Jesus Thrift Store. Also great reads are the three part series on how they save money, and the page about their frugal & fabulous wedding.

Finally, you can enter their weekly contests to win all kinds of fun home decor!
