I also love getting creative – I try to find interesting ways to save by shopping online and buying things that aren’t necessarily the norm.

I try to unsubscribe after I’ve found what I’m looking for, but signing up while you’re looking works well. I jumped at a discount on a doll my daughter wanted when I got a discount notification. I also try to look on Ebay to see if I can get things cheaper there. Sometimes you can, sometimes you can’t , but not looking can cost money.

I also sign up to be a guinea pig for medial testing. I might look terrible by Dec 25th but at least the kids stocking are full…

I always love to knit things for family and I’ve made artwork for my friends. Dont be afraid to go off the grid.

BudgetforMore such a great idea! Spreading out spending is so crucial and I never did it until this year! I even bough stuff last year in January when everything was on sale! I saved a ton!
