Two windows is better than one, or so they say. Only this time, it’s true because if you open the two windows up, it’s cool enough to not need a/c, which is a huge money drain.
There are many free magazines around the web so you really don’t need to pay for most of them. Just search the web for free magazine offers and they will probably give you a complimentary one year subscription.
Reception on your mobile phone is good enough to the point that land lines are becoming obsolete. If you want to save some money, it’s probably time to cut the land line out.
Did you know that there are promotions from ebay that let you list items for free? You can save so much money off your listing cost which only improves your ROI.
Find promo codes and coupons around the web before you shop because they are so much cheaper with discount and sales. Best of all, retailers actually want you to take advantage.
Every company seems to want to give away printers these days because they know that it’s the ink that really will cost you a ton of money. Whenever you get a free printer, don’t sell it. Just hook it up when you run out of ink.
Shipping boxes are annoying to keep around the house but they are very useful when you resell your item. You may think that it’s not much money but small costs really add up.
Costco sells forever stamps at about a 10% discount than everywhere else. You are already saving on inflation, why not buy in bulk and save some more?
Yard sales are the best thing for savings. Most of the stuff for sale is junk but once in a while, you really find a gem that the owner doesn’t know about. Other times, you can refinish what you buy and it will look brand new.
Limit the amount of trips to do laundry because you are wasting more water, detergent and others every time the machine is run. Save them up, do it in bulk and you will be less wasteful.
