Ok, My Best Money Saving Tip
::drumroll::

Go Dumpster Diving for Furniture and other items to fix up and use, saving you loads of money.

If you aren’t in a hurry and have some patience, keep your eyes peeled when driving by apartment complexes or dorm area or trash day in the suburbs. You would be amazed to find what you need if you wait and watch. Recently my roommate and I fixed up a dresser that we found at the dumpster. And it’s one of those older, better made ones as well.

Not only do dumpsters and trashcans have furniture but I have also found the following items in my history of diving:
Comic books
Many pennies
Much wood
Chairs
Useable computer equipment
Televisions
Microwaves
Exercise equipment
Clothes
Fishing stuff
Tools
Picnic basket with eating utensils
And the list goes on and on and on and on…
