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.
www.BradsDeals.com
www.RetailMeNot.com
www.CurrentCodes.com
www.CouponCabin.com
In addition to
shopping for discount codes, be sure to check prices
at:
www.PriceGrabber.com
www.Search.Live.com/Cashback
www.NexTag.com
www.Shopzilla.com

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.
