Cheap Stocking Stuffers
Every year I fill up my children’s stockings with little gifts that are all individually wrapped. It can get expensive buying items to fill them, though, especially if you’re purchasing stocking stuffers at stores like Target and Walmart that are over $2.00 each for the majority of items.

Baking Soda and Vinegar Drain Cleaner
The other day my mother called me and asked if I had any bleach for her sink. I said no. She then asked if I had any drain cleaner. Again, I said no. I told her that I no longer use any of that to clean my drains when they get clogged. I then mentioned…

Rewards Cards – Shaw’s Supermarket
Like many of the people I know, my wallet is filled with rewards cards for various stores and restaurants. In fact, I actually have an entirely separate wallet for all of mine. I know it can be confusing keeping all of them straight and what their benefits are, so from here on out, I’m going…
