Show # 5 - Creative Budget Shopping
September 21, 2007
->
Shopping on a budget sounds like a drag and budgeting is often difficult for moms who constantly need to buy necessary items for the kids. Frequent trips to the grocery store are a fact of life and that makes spending within a budget challenging.
Imagine living 100 miles away from the nearest clothing store. What happens when you have to drive 30 miles to a children’s boutique that often sells over-priced clothing? Our guest this week is Alyssa Avant from Beauty by Design Online who has to use creative shopping tricks to save money because she lives so far away from clothing stores. She’s able to conserve gas by planning her trips well and picking up everything she needs at once but also tries to follow a budget.
We mentioned a lot of online websites that Alyssa and I frequent so here’s a list for your convenience:
- Twinkle Toes Bowtique
- eBay!
- PaperBackSwap.com — hey try this too — SwapaCD.com
- Bargain Shopping at Amazon
(more than books!)
- PriceProtectr
- The Children’s Place
Check these daily for special bargains:
- Woot Daily - Deals on various products
- DealDotCom (Internet Marketing Daily Deals & Discounts) The name of this website can cause alot of headaches. It sure confused me while recording the show!
- Deal.com - Coming Soon! Do not confuse with DealDotCom.com!
