Many printable coupons from coupons.com, also offer the option to have a printed coupon sent to you from them. I use this option because one of my local grocery stores won't take Internet coupons. But they do take this type of coupon, sent from the coupons.com, because my name and address are printed on it.
This is a very clever tip! Thanks to Mary for sending this in!
Host an Auction Party as a fun way to get rid of things you don’t want and acquire things you do—all for free! Ask each guest to bring at least one item they would like to get rid of and a snack to share. All
the items are put on a table for everyone to look at while guests are arriving. Then hand each person $1,000 in play money. Someone assumes the position of auctioneer, and the articles are auctioned off to the highest bidder using the play money. The items can be anything from computers to
television sets, jewelry, clothing, plants, etc.
Always check free sample packages for bonus coupons! I just went through some free samples and found coupons for 75 cents/1 Honey Nut Cheerios and 50 cents off Glad trash bags.
If you have a box of cookies or crackers that has gone stale, it’s easy to freshen them again. Just pop them into a 350 F oven for about five minutes. They will soften at first and become crisp when they cool.
Inexpensive napkin rings can be made from shower curtain rings. There are a lot of colors and designs that can be used for a casual table setting.
Try using traditional, springloaded clothespins to clip lights to trees. They are barely noticeable, inexpensive, and easy and fast to use.
