Get A Free Frozen Kashi Meal
I love Kashi foods, but I have not yet tried the frozen meals luckily they are now giving out a free kashi frozen meal coupon and I have ordered mine and it is on the way. I love anything that is natural as I do believe that we eat way to many man made things. I’m not an all natural person yet, but I am heading that way.
Check it out and get yourself a free meal.
Have Some Fun And Save Money At The Casino
Yesterday was my sisters birthday and we again went to the casino. We also went for my birthday last month and it was then that we signed up for the casinos club card. When we signed up we got $10 for signing up, and I got another $20 because it was my birthday.
Looking for great deals like these is a great way to save some cash and still have fun. If you don’t take any money with you and only use what they give you, your not out much and you can sometimes spend hours playing. We were there for 3 hours yesterday and I know have enough in comp dollars to get a meal or 2 when we go for my mom’s birthday in April.
Finding programs like these at your local casino is a great way to save some cash and still have a fun time out with your friends, the club I signed up with even gives you money for referring a friend. Now that’s a great deal!
Get Good Computer Memory Deals Online
Today I went searching for some computer memory I need it for my laptop as I will be adding some very demanding programs to it soon. I searched online because I have always found the best deals for computers online. It doesn’t matter if it’s an online site for a popular retail store or a less known web based company that has some great coupon codes and deals.
I’m still comparing prices, but that is something you should do and is my Savey Spender tip for you today. Take your time in this economy and look around for the best deal you can get, remember just because it’s on sale does not mean that it is the best deal.
Save Money On Taxes Next Year
I know you want to save money this year, but in order to save money you need to plan. One way to save money on your taxes is to donate to a charity. Not only do you help people who need it, but you can help make your tax bill smaller. There are many types of charities to donate to, like research for cancer, cerebral palsy and diabetes.
If your not into the medical donations you can donate to help save the rain forest, help children in Africa or even to help the homeless here in the united states. You don’t have to donate just money either. If you have clothes or food you don’t want or need donate it to a local charity, goodwill or salvation army. Just make sure to watch the kids clothes because of new laws.
There are so many things you can donate that there is just not a reason not to donate. Yes it would be nice to make the money on these items now, but are you really going to be able to sell that strange shirt your grandmother gave you?
Do You Love A Great Deal?
Recently I was talking with my aunt and she went to a going out of business sale for local pharmacies. Most of the things there were around 25 cents each this included things like nail polish, acne treatments and hair die. She said most of it was strange colors, but there were a few good finds.
Looking for events like these that will help you save money on products that you like to use or may need is a great way to save some cash. The downside is that you may have to go though boxes in order to find what you need, but at about 25 cents per item you can’t beat it. Of course the one you find may be priced differently so do watch to see what they are trying to sell you.
Get In On Some Great Travel Deals
If you have been saveing for a vacation now is the time to check into some great travel deals. Right now you can get great deals to places like the Caribbean, Europe and you can find some great Vegas vacations. Most places have such great deals that people actually have enough to spend on their vacation. How great is that idea?
The one thing you want to make sure of is that your booking in the low season, if you book during the high season you will be paying more and you may have to deal with large crowds. If large crowds are what you want be prepared to pay, but if you don’t care then look to low season times to have your vacation.
Don’t Scrimp On Safety
Recently I ran into a friend who was injured while working. Her husband own his own business and was trying to save money by not buying the proper safety equipment. Now he has learned his lession but still can not afford to buy the correct equipment.
If you find yourself in the same situation where you need something that you can’t afford remember to take a good look online and see what you can find. Look for companies offering coupon codes and other deals that will get you what you need quick, easy and cheap. If you can’t find it and you own a business see if you can find someone who is willing to invest in your business. That way you can get what you need and still have money to operate.
What You Should Not Buy In A Down Economy
The government wants you to spend money right now, but there are just some things that should not be bought in a down economy.
A fur coat that cost more then your home, not only do people find it crewel but do you really need it?
auto performance parts that do not really help your car. Research before you buy something that promises to make your car run better and save you money.
A $1,000,000 suit, do you really need to spend that much on clothing?
A new TV, just because of the digital switch, you don’t need a new TV. Get a converter box and call it good for now. If you do find a really great deal on a TV think about it then.
Still Working On Loseing Weight
Spring is closer and now is the time that people really want to lose weight. They want to look good in those spring clothes and are buying a lot of equipment to do this. Things like exercise bikes and weights. It is a great personal investment, but you want to look at a few things first before you buy.
1. Do you actually like the equipment you are buying. If you are only getting it because it looks cool or may help you to lose weight, pass. Try out the equipment first and make sure you like how it feels and how it works with you and your body.
2. Don’t get the most expensive item, just because it cost a lot does not mean it works better. Free weights and a bench can work just as well as the expensive weight equipment.
3. Look at consumer reviews of the product, see how it’s worked for other people and make an informed decision.
With money being tight right now, you need to make sure everything you get is up to your standards and your needs, follow these steps and you should be just fine.
A Great Time To Travel
Right now with so many people not able to go on vacations it is a great time to find some good deals. There are many cheap cruses to Europe and in the Caribbean, you could also go to Alaska and enjoy the great scenery there. One thing you should remember, no matter how good of a deal you get, is to also get a good travel insurance quote so that you save money there too. No matter how good a travel deal is, if you lose all of your things and don’t have insurance it really can eat into that great deal.












Time For A New Router
The main thing to look for is one that has security features that you can change from home. We recently bought a router and can not change the settings, we have to call them and have the company do it for us. This is annoying and a waste of time. You want security so that others do not get onto your internet as they not only can use it, but they can get your information and may be after more then just free internet use.
