Frugal is a word that seems to connote sacrifice and meager portions.
It's original meaning is to enjoy life. (Latin frui)
To have and enjoy whatever you want to the fullest.
It means discovering the right size, number or quantity for all of your purchases.
Enjoy the nice things you've been given without trying to find more happiness
beyond sufficient.
(Of course each persons sufficient varies).
Every purchase doesn't need to be (biggie sized)
or increased in number in order to find true joy.
Sometimes one small steak tastes better than a giant sandwich.
Often one trip to the park is more enjoyable than an annual pass to an amusement park.
So ask yourself on every purchase,
What is the ideal time and expenditure to obtain the most joy possible?
