Save On Online Shopping

It's been said that shopping online can save money. It can if you're not a shopaholic. You're less tempted to buy all those extras that grab your attention in a store. So if you want to shop online, save a little by first searching for discount codes.

Almost 3/4 of online merchants offer discount codes at least some of the time. There are several web sites that offer them for free.

Best Bargains Ever

There are so many things that we take for granted today, never realizing the value they add to our lives -- even moreso is their cost is insignificant. Following are some of the best bargains ever:

Toothpaste and dental floss. Think about how much toothpaste and floss you can buy for the cost of a filling.

Paper and crayons. One of the least expensive, most creative and best gifts for any child.

Non-cable television. There's more garbage on cable TV now than there is on your basic network channels including, the best of all, public television (PBS). Even if you need cable to access the programming, it's still less than $10/month.

Postage stamps. It's amazing how much you can stuff into a 1-ounce envelope that the postal service will carry thousands of miles for a mere $0.42.  And for computer owners, email is a great bargain.

 Potatoes. Pound for pound, potatoes pack more nutrients into them than any other food. Feed your family a nutritionally complete meal with a baked potato topped with chopped broccoli in cheese sauce and a sprinkle of bacon bits. Serve fruit for desert and you have all the ingredients of the basic food pyramid for peanuts per serving.
