6. Yard tools and equipment
Many people believe that keeping their yard looking beautiful and put together is a piece of cake, but in reality, you need a lot of patience, good tools, and some skills. That’s why many homeowners get sick of all the time and effort they have to put in to maintain their shiny lawn, so they quickly decide to leave this job for someone who is a professional.
That means that they’ll have all their yard tools and equipment on sale as soon as possible. You can often find nearly new things at great prices, so you can buy all the items you need at a big discount.
Clothing.
i.e. shirts, pants, jackets at Goodwill.
I buy most of my clothes at a resale shop, shoes that are sometimes new for under$10, jeans for $2.50. – $5.00, a like new jacket for under $10 etc. Just need to check frequently and buy what you will use but do not wait til you need a specific item and have high expectations of finding it.
Any other suggestions on being economical, i.e., whether to dumpster dive, swap, set up elephant flea markets, finding old but good food, etc.
I have some of all these items for anyone who would care to buy them USED. Thanks
Textbooks. Nowadays many professors are a little more forgiving when it comes to buying textbooks you will use for 16 weeks and then are likely to never open it again. Amazon and affiliates are good at offering textbooks of different editions and professors often allow students to purchase older editions that are less expensive. And Amazon et. al. are good at categorizing texts by quality and price and you can get a good deal depending on what you can tolerate (bent cover or smoothed edges etc.)
Its called settling rather than buying what you would like
