Best Buys for June
It’s June and time to look at some of the month’s best bargain buys- June means Father’s Day so look for things like power tools going on sale before and maybe even after too. Wedding season is in full swing as well. And who wants to be inside working out when the weather’s near perfect which means gyms and health clubs lower their membership fees this time of the year. So, if you really want to join one, now’s the time. Also, look for post Memorial Day sales. Burgers, buns, hot dogs and pickles…perfect for the upcoming Fourth of July holiday too. Some garden items might be discounted, especially annual…

Don’t Throw Them Away
I love getting as much use out of stuff I buy as I can. My motto is nothing’s a waste of money if you use it wisely. You wouldn’t think vegetables fit into that category but they do. Each time I prepare a vegetable I keep the trimmings and pieces I don’t use in the recipe or meal. I use a freezer bag to put things like carrot peelings, onion roots, ‘ribs’ of kale, and anything that’s a little bruised into it. At the end of the week, I put them into a large pan, add water, a couple of bay leaves, some peppercorns and bring it to boil, then…

Last Day To Buy Your Content Creation Collection Toolbox and More Ways to Use the Content
Yesterday, I posed three tips on using the content you’ll find in the spring version of the Toolbox that’s currently on sale. Here are a few more ideas- Create a Class People love learning new skills and gaining knowledge and it’s also a great way to pull in an audience. Problem is what do you teach? Putting together a class can also be time consuming…believe me when I say I speak from experience.

What’s on Sale?-March
I thought we’d bring back an old feature that used to be here on Budget Smart Girl. At the beginning of each Month, I’ll be posting a list of things that are usually on sale that month. I say ‘usually’ because things can change. For example, maybe there’s an oversupply of something and it will go on sale every month. Here’s the list I came up with for this month- March means St. Patrick Day so think foods like potatoes, corned beef and cabbage and also soda bread. These items are on sale all month but I think you’ll find bigger discounts after March 17th March is also frozen food…
