About Claire Bennett – Founder of Smart Frugal Living

Hi, I’m Claire — and I believe living well doesn’t have to mean spending more.

After years of juggling a family budget, creating tasty meals on a dime, and slowly transforming our home into a peaceful, clutter-free space, I started Smart Frugal Living as a way to share what I’ve learned. My mission is simple: to help women simplify their lives, save money, and find more joy at home.

I know what it’s like to feel overwhelmed by grocery bills, endless clutter, and the pressure to “keep up.” That’s why everything you’ll find here is designed to be practical, realistic, and achievable — whether it’s cheap meal plans, a no-spend challenge, or a step-by-step guide to decluttering one drawer at a time.

Who I Help

Smart Frugal Living is for you if you’re:

• A busy mom trying to make your grocery budget stretch
• A professional looking for quick, healthy, budget-friendly meals
• Someone craving a calmer, more intentional home without the excess

What You’ll Find Here

• Budgeting strategies to keep your finances on track
• Meal prep plans that save time and money
• Minimalist living tips to help you focus on what truly matters

This isn’t about deprivation — it’s about making space for what you love, whether that’s cooking a cozy dinner, enjoying a peaceful weekend, or finally feeling at ease in your own home.

So grab a cup of coffee, take a look around, and let’s make simple, joyful living your new normal.
