Money Saving Tips:
When looking for a Play Fort for your children look to neighbors,
classifieds, etc. for one's their kids have outgrown. Most people just
want to get them out of their yard, and will give them to you, or just
want a small amount for them (compared to what they cost new!). With a
little hard work and paint yours will be good as new, and kids don't
know that it's not brand new...it's new to them!!
Bargain Hunting Strategies:
After working in the grocery industry for five years, I've learned
that stores frequently change the "pattern" or planogram of their
shelves, so they pull off a lot of items and put them in grocery carts
and mark them down substantially just to get rid of them... so 50 cent
spices, laundry detergent marked down, etc. It's always worth it to stop
and go thru them!
Products we can't live without:
Cheerios, vinegar (to clean the floors!) and crystal light raspberry
lemonade (worth the money!)
