2. Tech gadgets
If you’re one of those people who love having tech gadgets, you’ll surely like to know that you can save hundreds of dollars when it comes to buying things such as TVs, laptops, or tablets. Some savings experts suggest purchasing an “open-box TV” from brands including Target or Best Buy so that you can get the most out of your purchase.
By doing so, you’ll get a discount on a TV that was returned or used as a store model but be sure that you also receive a full warranty, as you would normally receive on a brand-new item. Speaking of stores and brands, you can save up to 25% if you purchase the floor model item at Best Buy.
You can also look on Amazon Warehouse for all the used tech that you want, including open-box items such as laptops and tablets that have been either returned, damaged in a depository, used, or refurbished. And if you look on this website, you’ll notice that there is a category called “Buying Options,” where Amazon sorts by condition, so you can be sure if the product is in good condition or not.

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
Great advice.
