Hi <<First Name>>

Saving Money is addictive. We try to save money on everything! Is that being cheap or being money smart? 

We know several wealthy people and we haven’t ever seen them spend money frivolously. They research, wait and buy when the price is right.  This is how we save money on EVERYTHING!

 

OUR NEWEST PROJECT

That’s how we live. We just remodeled our kitchen backsplash with some free black granite tile that we found being thrown away. We had six 24” x 24” tiles and had to do some detailed planning to finish the job. But it looks amazing and cost very little to do.





 

IT’S PRIME DAY

July 15 & 16 is Amazon Prime Day.

Like most families, we love to save money. And one of the prime ways we do it is by shopping online. Our two favorite online shopping sites are eBay and Amazon.

Since today and tomorrow are Amazon Prime Days (free shipping for everything that Amazon sells), we’re encouraging you to check out deals on Amazon. You will need to sign up for a free Amazon Prime trial to get the deals. 

The annual Amazon Prime Membership costs $119  for adults and $78 for students.

  • Note: All links to Amazon in this email are Affiliate links - meaning we may receive a small commission if you purchase something through them. However, your price still remains the same. Our Amazon commission defers the price of sending this bi-monthly newsletter.

Amazon Prices: We’ve found that most of their grocery prices are higher than what we would pay. But their but most of their other items (tech, home decor, carpet cleaners and vacuums, books and more) are competitively priced. 

Be sure to check out the Amazon Warehouse Bargain Bin (50% off items)

And with free shipping, it makes it even better.
