Whenever I go into a furniture store I will immediately ask the sales associate what is the best price he/she could give me on whatever item I’m interested in. If they tell me it is not currently on sale, I will politely ask to speak with a manager and ask them the same questions. Quantity Discount. Learn to Negotiate Better Prices.

I belong to many frugal living Facebook groups and so often people rant about how expensive and overwhelming gift giving can be for the extended family. The first year we had this gift exchange, everyone was really polite, but now it has turned into a game of belly laughs and gift snatching! Thrift store finds. Handmade gifts.

Nourishing Traditions: The Cookbook that Challenges Politically Correct Nutrition and the Diet Dictocrats by Sally Fallon with Mary G. We were at a church thrift sale and he found it on the $1 table. Do you have a favorite cookbook to give someone as a gift? The titles of these two books pretty much sum up her cooking style.
