Update: It looks like my segment is going to be Thursday, not Monday! I’ll keep ya’ll posted as changes occur!
By the way, I’m flying out to New York to be on The Today Show. We shot the segment last Thursday, and I’ll answer questions about it this coming Monday, the 20th. (I may seem matter of fact about this, but in truth I’m bouncing off the ceiling.)
And in case you’re overwhelmed with feelings of how glamorous my life is, here I am hanging out in the Goodwill used shoes section with Today Show’s Kristen Dahlgren.

Congratulations!! How fun!!
YAY!! So exciting!!!
Good luck — and enjoy NYC! Glad to see you getting such exposure.
Katy, this is excellent news! Congrats!
Triple Whooooopeee!! Yaaayy! Congrats!
They’re lucky to have such an articulate, appealing guest for their show. Someone who has something useful and long-term to add to their audience’s lives.
Congratulations to you too!
By the way….I wasn’t clear on when it airs???? Sure don’t want to miss it!
It will air on Monday. Not sure at what time.
Katy
Plan to watch…can’t wait..but went ahead and set the VCR just in case….that way I can watch again and again. I am soooo excited for you and for all the people who don’t know you and all the good stuff youdo. But, I believe your life will be in for a lot of big changes now….hopefully financial rewards!
That is Teeee-riffic!
I hope you’ll post the video. I’ll be at work and can’t watch!
Teeee-rrific!
Woo! Hoo! I can’t wait to see it.
Congratulations! May have to organize a watching party in my neighborhood (West Portland Park). We’re all rooting for you! 🙂
Thanks, I am super excited!
Katy
Woooooooooooooooot!!!! So excited for you!
I’ll be in eastern Washington (Chelan). I dearly hope the TV there works…
Yay! DVR is set!
So Cool Katy!!! I will tune in, especially since I can watch NBC for free on the antenna!!
Absolutely, gobsmacking fantastic! The questions just tumble out of my head: When do you leave; what airline; will they be putting you up a night or two; (and the question NEVER posed to men) what will you wear? This is where one of my all time favorite frugal quotations from Henry David Thoreau comes into play–“Beware of all enterprises that require new clothes”. You and HDT would probably have been very good friends. Congratulations and enjoy every memorable moment.
Congratulations! Have a fantastic time! Woot woot!!!
Wow, Katy! According to my newspaper listing, Martha Stewart will also be on the show! I’m proud to know you.
I know and I love her!
Katy
WAY cool! I hope we can see the segment after it airs. Are you going to be like the lady Jesse Arrington who did her TED talk on “Wear Nothing New”? She came to town with the clothes on her back and 7 pair of underwear and proceeded to outfit herself from local thrift shops for the entire week. She had a slide show of her various outfits which were very “fun” and talked about limiting one’s impact on the environment. I am guessing that whatever you wear, it might be a topic for discussion as to how you came by it. Can hardly await to “see” you!
Fabulous! Can’t wait to see it on Monday!
Congrats-you deserve it!!
Wow! Can we have your autograph? Yippie Skippie!
Wow and congrats! can’t wait to see and hear about it!
Have a great time!
Congrats! Setting the DVR now!
Thank you everyone! It’s shaping up to be an awesome trip. I’ll actually be staying a few extra days in NYC, plus my amazing best friend Jennifer (who lives in New Hampshire) will be in NY in Sunday/Monday so we’re going to be able to hang out.
I am almost more excited about see her than anything else!
Way to go Katy!!!!
Yay! So exciting!!!!
How exciting Katy! Can’t wait to watch the show. Setting DVR just in case I forget!
Have a great time in New York.
Will it be posted anywhere so that I can watch it from Europe?! Soo excited for you!!!
I will be sure to post a link.
Katy
Have fun, Katy. Thanks for posting a link.
Yay for you and for the non-consumerism message! Now maybe everyone will flock to my vintage kitchenwares shop and buy all this stuff I have in my basement, instead of going to Bed, Bath, and Beyond. That would be nice.
Holy shoe section!! I’m seeing why you find so much good stuff just by the size and selection there is in the shoe section. Our is itty bitty in comparison.
Again, have a great time with your NY adventure!!
This is awesome…congratulations Katy!
How exciting! Congrats! And that looks like a really nice Goodwill!
Can’t wait to see you on tv!! Congrats!!
Just watched your segment and loved it. Would it be possible for you to put the websites mentioned by the other woman interviewed along with you? I’m disabled and do not drive, so being able to shop second hand online, outside of Ebay, would be great for me as well as others. The more options for savings the better.
