Garage sales – I found a guitar for $5.00 once at a garage sale and bought it for my grandson. Relatives – Great Uncle Joe may still have that trumpet he used to play and might like to donate it to a future generation! We rented our son’s alto saxophone while he took lessons in high school.

learning to give by having them donate last years clothing. I love to shop garage sales. Rent Don’t Buy. If your child is wanting to take music lessons, think about renting the instrument instead of buying. College students have the option of renting books now. Buy don’t rent. Get Social.

We rent a shelter (usually), and it is bare! Some get stuff from stores, the less financially favored head for thrift stores, garage sales, Mom’s house or the trash pickup routes. You donate to suitable charities. We leave the nest – move out of Mom and Dad’s well stocked home.

Choose a place to stay where you don’t need a car So many places I’ve traveled, I’ve deliberately picked a hotel or other accommodation near a bus line or bike trail, so I don’t have to rent a car when I’m there. Hosting garage sales & reselling items.
