My husband and I purchased refurbished computers. 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. We’ve bought used video games as well. There are many consumer electronics items that you can purchase used.

Some people keep their recipes on the computer, but I prefer my binder with its well-used, splattered pages. But I have seen a variety of binders at yard sales and thrift stores for pocket change. My recipe binder is a very important part of my kitchen. I am a bit obsessive about them being all white.

A meal plan can be one of the best ways to avoid last-minute takeout runs, as well as ensure that you have a way to use the food you buy. Before you get rid of items that are still in usable condition, consider trying to sell them, or give them to a thrift store. Preserve Some of Your Food.

My standard of living (and most other people’s as well) is much better now that we have all of the conveniences from the past 60 years available. There were no personal computers. There were no ‘yellow’ or ‘orange’ or ‘red’ air days. Conveniences. There was no internet. Food/shopping.

Books, trendy clothes, dorm stuff, maybe a car, a computer and more are all on the hunt list. We leave the nest – move out of Mom and Dad’s well stocked home. Some get stuff from stores, the less financially favored head for thrift stores, garage sales, Mom’s house or the trash pickup routes.
