is frugalista a synonym of jologs? hehe.
nagkukunwaring mayaman kaya papalit-palit ng damit, alinsunod sa fashion. wala namang substance ang portrayal.
wrong. ang frugalista hindi kumakain ng pisbol at tokneneng para lang may pang-ukay
gets ko na. iba nga. nga pala, di ba may libro kayo na tungkol sa ukay? lumabas na ba yun?
