Make friends with similar money values

Have friends who love to meet after work for shopping, pedicures and pricey appetizers and cocktails at a local hotspot? I hate to tell you who to hang out with, but they may not be the ones for you, girlfriend. Meeting up on the mountain most weekends for black diamonds and beers? Either you'll have to convert your friends to your new thrifty lifestyle or you'll have to find some new ones. I met some amazing women at a "Naked Mamas Party" -- we brought our don't-fit-anymore clothes, a couple of bottles of wine and some munchies, and proceeded to "go shopping" through each other's cast-offs.
