Hopefully the new one I ordered will serve me well for a while. I ordered a previous edition of my Nursing Fundamentals book We were required to purchase the digital version, since it come with online assignments that are mandatory. So, I hopped onto eBay and bought a hard copy previous edition of the book for $15.71.

As long as we buy them from an authorized source, we can get a guarantee as well. We were able to get a great deal on older couches that were very well-built.

I tend to focus on certain brands that I really like and that fit me well. While I like to shop at thrift stores, I have a hard time finding TALL length jeans for my 5’10 frame and I was in need of new jeans. It was quite a job, and so far, he’s sold: a Broyhill 3 piece tv armoire and book case set: $300.

“How to Live Large and Have Fun”, “How to Spend Millions on Credit and Never Pay a Dime”, “Live Large and On Charge…Cards”, “Living High on the Hog: The Art of Budget Busting”…these are all titles of fictitious books, but they might as well be bestsellers. That is $100 a week you can be saving in order to book that trip to Scotland.

If you are in more of a hurry, find a thrift store instead. But, find one in a high end neighborhood, one where the store sorts through the donations to select only the best. Books and DVDs. Garage sales and thrift stores are great places to find books and DVDs. It is still in the shrink wrap.

Dave Ramsey suggests in his book, The Total Money Makeover , that you create a starter emergency fund of $1000. Stop Spending, BUT still live well: 1 – Declare a “Needs Only” month. I’m always amazed by the amount store tags I see on clothing and household item at thrift stores.
