Unfortunately, many of us head out to the grocery stores armed with nothing but our credit card and a rough idea of what we need. Simple, everyday household items like vinegar, dishwashing detergent, and baking soda make excellent cleaning products. Plus, it gives you a healthy hobby that you can share with the kids.

As we know, the local pet store sells plenty of toxic products designed to kill those fleas dead in no time. Give your pets baths as often as they (or you) can stand to do so. Good old fashioned baking soda. They are nasty little critters that can make life pretty annoying for your favorite furry pet. Regular bathing.

Think outside the gift giving box this season; look at old unused items that may have parts that can be reused for other interesting and unique gifts. Cover thrift store finds such as boxes and crates with dish shards for an awesome magazine rack. Two liter soda bottles become holders for hair accessories in the bathroom.

I also occasionally get to encourage young entrepreneurs by purchasing their wares (usually soda or lemonade but sometimes more ambitions products as well). Here is a short list of some of my favorite finds at garage, estate and thrift store sales. Rattan loveseat and ottoman – $25. So, what do you think of my treasures?

Shop around at garage sales, thrift stores and online classifieds for furniture and other household items. Ask around, see if someone you know may have an extra of something they’re not using and don’t need so they’d be happy to give it to you. You can end up well ahead in the long run. Eat out less. Frugal gifting. Drink water.
