Last year, a Life on a Dime participated in the blogging challenge known as blogtober, and I’m excited to say we’re doing it again! Here is a quick rundown on what blogtober is and what to expect this month on a Life on a Dime.

WHAT BLOGTOBER IS
If you were around this time last year, you may remember a Life on a Dime participating in the popular blogging challenge. Participating blogs publish a new blog post each day during the month of October.
Last year a Life on a Dime rounded out October with a total of thirty two posts in thirty one days! It was quite an undertaking! Though it was not easy, I connected with many new bloggers and readers, and look forward to the challenge again this year, with a few modifications.
WHAT TO EXPECT DURING BLOGTOBER 2020 ON A LIFE ON A DIME
This year in order to keep things easier to manage and flow well with the overarching themes of this blog I plan to publish a post on a set topic every weekday during the month. This will result in twenty-two blogtober posts rather than thirty-one.
DAILY POST THEMES
MINIMALIST MONDAYS
I love minimalism and writing about minimalism! The lifestyle/mindset choice has great impact on financial and mental well being. Look for posts on how it can have a positive effect on other areas of your life every Monday during the month of October!
TRAVEL TUESDAYS
Every Tuesday during the blogtober challenge a Life on a Dime will share a guest post from blogging friends around the world. Each Tuesday a new blogger will introduce you to where they’re from and provide helpful, budget-friendly travel info on what to do in their area!
WELLNESS WEDNESDAYS
Wednesdays will be all about health related topics, from a very trusted source. Dr. Debi is someone I turn to for advice and I can’t wait to see what she has to share with us!
THURSDAY THOUGHTS
Thursdays will be a bit of a wild card during blogtober; I plan to post timely advice or thoughts related to current events. Any life updates published in October will be done on Thursdays.
There may also be weeks I publish a recipe or two on Thursday rather than a blog post.
PERSONAL FINANCE FRIDAYS
Every Friday a post featuring budgeting tips, advice, or other personal finance-related insights will be published. Most posts will be directly from a Life on a Dime, but I am open to taking a guest post or two here as well.

HOW TO FOLLOW ALONG DURING BLOGTOBER 2020
Be sure to subscribe as a Frugal Friend for daily post updates during the month of October so you don’t miss anything! You can also follow a Life on a Dime on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram for updates.

I am so excited about participating in this blog challenge again and can’t wait for you to see all that’s in store! I’ll be back tomorrow with a Personal Finance Friday post!


I’ve made it through 21 days of straight blogging for the Blogtober Challenge 2020. I’m kind of looking forward to it because I didn’t realize how time consuming it was going to be. More than likely I’m going to do it again next year. But for next year, I’m going to add an index of fellow bloggers who are doing Blogtober (right from the get go). Something along the lines of Bloggers taking the Blogtober 2021 challenge.
Great that you are participating Cassie! I am not able to participate but I enjoy reading posts. Have a great Blogtober xx
This is great! I have not seen another blogger do a schedule with different topics on different days for Blogtober, but it’s brilliant! I can’t wait to read your Blogtober content!
I look forward to your October posts 😀
