Moving across the country or across the street is a huge hassle, but it doesn’t have to be expensive. Save time, stress, and most importantly, money, by getting rid of excess stuff first.

While we love a good bargain as much as the next guy (heck – it’s in our name!), there are some things you just should not buy at garage gales. Whether it’s safety, sanitary or financial reasons, we’ve come up with a list that will help you spend your money like a pro at summer yard sales! What Not to Buy at Garage Sales
One of my favorite clothing and handbag lines is Tokidoki. It’s playful, fun, hip… and a bit pricey. But about a year ago, I found the brand’s Facebook page and gave them a “Like.” Now a couple of times a year I’m notified about their secret Warehouse Sales, which are not advertised to the public. Many brands, especially higher end ones, have warehouse sales. The
A friend attended his cousin’s wedding last year. At almost $100,000, it was quite costly. Hardly a wedding on a budget. The couple isn’t famous; just regular people with middle-class parents. The bride wanted the best of everything. Costs spiraled out of control, to the point where potential guests were being asked to contribute money, or were told that they would probably not be getting
I love to pamper myself at home with salt scrubs and lotions. It’s like going to the spa for a quarter of the price, especially if I shop during a The Body Shop sale.

I’m a total foodie so the grocery store is more fun to me than going to the mall (don’t worry, my sisters think I’m crazy too!), so I was never sold on buying groceries online. That all changed when my grandmother had a stroke and lost the ability to drive. She hated to rely on us for groceries, so we set her up with Peapod
I had no idea there were so many uses for aluminum foil. I found myself without a funnel this week while mixing some essential oils, and cleverly curled a section of foil into a cone shape, secure it with tape, and start pouring. I considered myself a genius until I googled “uses for foil” and came across the mother lode. And since foil is on
Sometimes I procrastinate by watching cat videos (yeah, you know you do it, too). But it’s not just all fur and fluff – New York Magazine estimates Internet star Grumpy Cat is worth $1 million dollars. With merchandise, a New York Times Bestseller, another book on the way, a Friskies endorsement deal and a feature film in the works, Grumpy’s not just some cute cat, she’s
Dan and Penny are a real couple I know. They are in their thirties with two young children, a mortgage, student loans, and car payments. One is a spender, and one is saver. The problem is neither can compromise. Dan thinks his money is his to spend once the bills are paid and he contributes a bit to his 401(k). Penny wants to be financially
