| How to Fill a Holiday Stocking for Free
|
 Stockings don't have to cost anything and are supposed to be filled with small trinkets and goodies, not things like $50 gift cards and iPods! Remember when we used to get clementines in there? What happened with that?

 As a single mother in 1980, necessity became the mother of invention for me. I had a house built with passive solar windows, and all electric heat, kitchen and water heater.

| Shop Early Morning for Mark Downs
|
|
One good way to save money at the grocery store without clipping coupons is to shop early in the morning. By getting to the store at 8 a.m. or so, you are able to take advantage of the mark downs. They do go fast.

| Homemade "Space Bags"
|
|
Instead of buying those high priced bags to store things in like clothes and bedding etc., you can take the garbage bags, fill it up with jackets or bedding or what ever.

| Reuse Plastic Bags At Target
|
|
Target deducts .05 off your total for every bag you bring in to bag your purchased items. I keep mine in my vehicle so they are always available.

| Avoid Shopping Black Friday
|
|
Black Friday many people have the day after thanksgiving off. What to do? Free newspapers full of glossy pamphlets and coupons. Throw the entire newspaper away (recycle). Do you really want to save $2 on an item which ends up being no benefit at all.

I have California King, which are the most expensive to buy sheets for, if you can find them anywhere at all. I just received my order from overstock.com of an entire cotton flannel set for $23, and that included shipping!

There is a website to see early ad scans of the day after Thanksgiving sales from major retailers. They add more stores each week. You can do extensive budget planning way ahead of time and plan your agenda if you go shopping than.

| Watch Price Tags for Sale Items
|
|
Did you that you can get a bargain at Sam's Club? Sam's doesn't have sales. So to know if you are getting a true bargain look for things ending with .01 cent. For example $10.81. Those are their markdowns.
