Shop Around Before Buying New

Shop freecycle.org, craigslist.com, thrift shops, newspaper ads and ask around before buying new. If you must buy new on line is often tax and shipping free. Grocery by lowest first, swap for produce, $store, discount store, grocery chain. Do one a week and keep list for comparison on often used items. Walgreens has an EasySaver rebate program and things are free (except tax). Entertainment Book has paid for itself in the first couple months, swap with others. Our building organized a thrift pick up and we put in and removed "treasures"
