Money Saving Tip Link-a-Thon
No Credit Needed Is holding a link-a-thon for money-saving-tips.
My Biggest Money-saving tip is not earth-shattering. But it works *when I stick to it*
Have a (short) list of things I am wanting to buy. Look around for bargains on those things, wait for the best price.
If I see something in the store that I feel I MUST have, but it isn't on the list -- don't buy it. I can go home, add it to the list, and start looking for best price on it. But often by the time I get home, I realize I want the things already on the list more than the almost-impulse purchase I didn't buy!

This is such a good tip. As you know, I love to get good frugal tips from other people. :)
I also never replied to your comment on my blog about frugal baby and the decisions you're making. I pray that God gives you perfect wisdom in the choices you make for you and your little one! It's sometimes hard to know what to do when the decision involves not just us, but also potentially our child.
Blessings!
mbr, just popping by to let you know i've tagged you on a book meme at my blog.

Good tip. By the way, the Puget Sound is beautiful. I live just south of you.
