[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]stay away from Target and other retail. Simple--if I don't go to stores, I don't spend money.[/quote] This is so true. Target is a money suck. I would add to go to yard sales and those seasonal consignment sales for toys. Everyone buys the same learning table so there will be 15 to choose from at a consignment sale for 75% less than brand new. I got an amazing stroller for $25 at a yard sale.[/quote] Yep, and be sure to go to yard sales in rich subdivisions where you can usually find name brands in great condition. We also grew a veg. garden. Easy and cheap starters are green beans and tomatoes and basic spices. Def. saved some bucks at the grocery store over the summer with fresh veggies from the garden. Plus it forced me outside during postpartum time to start and maintain garden instead of sitting inside like a lump on the couch.[/quote]
