Having said that, don't bother with the lady telling you how to save $1000 on groceries. She's an idiot. You can save 3 times that amount by growing your own vegetables in your yard. If you don't have a yard, do it in boxes or planters. Not only will it save you money, gas and time, but you'll be eating far healthier than anything you can buy in a box, bag, bottle or tube.
It's proven fact a family of 4 can reduce their grocery bill by an average of $3000 if they grow their own produce. It's good exercise and it teaches personal responsibility and awareness of just how terrible processed foods are for your body.
Here is another money saving tip for you. Keep the quarters in your pocket and go to the nearest tire shop and have one of thier guys put air in your tires. They wont charge you anything, its called customer service. Also, most gas stations have an air hose for thier customers to fill up tires and you dont need any quarters to put in the machine. Its usually just an air hose put out for customers, not a quarter operated machine.
Only 25 comments and more then half of them are damn spammers. Go pedal your sh_it somewhere else.
Well, Well, exchange your land line for a cell phone with data plan, and so many other items here are under suspect of being a form of advertising!--my land line is 23,43 with fees, and the black burry is 176 including taxes, so something wrong just on that.--they stand to get 150 Dollars more a month.
Haggle about prices in stores, will not be allowed much longer, since that causes major corruption, the same reason for cameras over check out lines and tool gates, to make sure friends do not get anything for free. I have seen several stores with signs about no haggling, so buying online with price copies taken by your cell phone will probably be forbidden and then using places like Amazon, since that is really a scam, that they and others make people shop by using black mail haggling--just wait and see it will soon be illegal.
The article was informative and interesting. It seemed to me that it was geared more toward the affluent reader than somebody that really needs ways to save money. I do think it makes sense to replace your land line on any budget, if you need long distance coverage. Also, refinancing at these fantastic rates are worth looking into. I would suggest really reading the fine print on all credit card inquiries. What seems like a good deal could go very wrong. With one late payment, you could be looking at paying the whole balance at 21% or more. It is really better to avoid credit cards, unless you have enough in savings to pay them off when needed, as they reserve the right to change most interest rates at any time, for their own reasons also.
Dan----Take a trip to the rest of the western world, and you will find capitalism here is good for one type only and that is rich people--the 0.05 %!
My 170 K 401 K has the same Dollar number-- now 158 K as it did 11 years ago (but less than half the buying power), and you are right that created 2 jobs, one for the one who has my money (and thousands of other peoples money), and one for me, because I have to work to make up the value of 170 K 11 years ago, that now should have been at least 300 K to have just the same value--so the rich used my money to take the money value loss the last 11 years--but at least I do not have to pay taxes.--Same as this storey--bogus! And he had my money to ride on just about anything he wanted too in those 11 years, most have no idea!
