A good deal on a big bag of fresh lettuce isn’t thrifty if you can’t use it up before it rots. Use the life out of all your appliances, but save up enough money to replace them quickly if they are nearing the end of their lifespan. With fresh food – buy only what you can eat before it goes bad.

You can make it fun for you kids by running a household scavenger hunt in which you reward you children for finding household items to donate, such as clothes, toys, books, old appliances, and canned goods. Public transportation can also be a great alternative depending on the area and your comfort level. And vice versa!)
