frugalista

The latest and possibly most irritating in a series of Great Recession-era portmanteau. Also, a great reason never to buy clothes at Target.

Janice, Michele, and Kate are all frugalistas that have one thing in common: they wear bright orange pleather skorts and hi-five the mailman. They are also all dead inside.
