Save $500 a Month?
I recently found this online article, and while most of these seem like common sense, there are a few good tips. I’d especially like to draw attention to item #5, just in case it’s not something you’ve thought of lately. And, yes, you can request stuff online through our catalog.
Happy savings!

I’ve started using the library again because I don’t have enough money for books anymore. I was surprised to see all of the other things the library has. FREE DVD’S!

I agree, I too have started to use the library for books, magazines, and yes, DVD’s. I must admit though, the title to this entry is a little misleading…are you suggesting that the average family can save $500 a month by renting DVD’s from the library instead of the store? That’s a lot of DVD’s….or, (and this is my hope), were there other cost-saving things you discovered that you had intended to share with all, but perhaps your message got truncated… (?)

The post is about an online article. Click on the link. Although I think it’s a stretch to suggest you can save $500 by following the tips.

Excellent Article!
And the suggestions may not apply to everyone, but I saved a bunch from the suggestions for sure. I immediately take that extra and plug it into my IRA every month, so that I 1. Don’t get used to seeing the extra income and 2. Write it off on my taxes and 3. Save a little more for retirement. Every little bit helps!
