[QUOTE="Star*, post: 203382, member: 4964"] Family Dollar is NOW selling packs of 10 AA and packs of 8 AAA for $1.00 in our area as a Christmas promotion. ALSO - FOR THOSE OF YOU ON MEDICATIONS - BEFORE you go to the doctor - check places like Walmart, Kmart, Publix for THEIR LIST (available on line) of generic drugs. Most can be had for $4.00 - What's the catch? 1.) You have to KNOW what drug is available in generic 2.) The participating pharmacy requires a 90 day prescription from the doctor * you ONLY have to take /pay for one month at a time 3.) Not all participating pharmacies have the same medications on "special" ALSO right now there are pharmacy wars - MOST places (Kmart, Publix, CVS) are offering a $10 (kmart) to $25 (CVS) gift card if you transfer ONE prescription - if you can do it - you can have it transferred once, get the card - then switch it back the next time and your pharmacist will do all the work and call - :winking: FREECYCLE - [URL="http://www.freecycle.org"]www.freecycle.org[/URL] - and CRAIGSLIST [URL="http://www.craigslist.com"]www.craigslist.com[/URL] BOTH have FREE areas where you can POST for things to GET RID OF /SHARE and RECYCLE if you no longer want them.....and the WANTED has been GREAT for things we need/can't pay a bunch for. It's fantastic for friends I have that have kids - they meet someone somewhere and get free clothes for the kids/selves....nice stuff sometimes, other stuff? Doesn't fit, wrong style - goes to salvation Army If we all keep this up we're going to be the greenest board on the web! :alien: LETS KEEP SHARING THESE IDEAS ARE FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!! ALSO for those of you who make under the poverty level on wages - Check out your local LIHEAP office for a one time payment on an electric bill - there are some requirements - but find out about it - it's free. FREE schooling is available throught the WORK FORCE INCENTIVE ACT or WIA - information should be available through your local unemployment office but you do NOT have to be unemployed to get the free college tuition money. ANYONE ELSE A COUPONER???? I get the Sunday Paper - and cut all the coupons out and have found different places to coupon train (You cut yours out - send them to me - I take out what I want put some in, send the rest to the next person) - I stopped doing the trains but have some people that I swap with on a bi-weekly basis - I HAVE NO NEED FOR HUGGIES COUPONS.....see? But I LIVE For CAT FOOD COUPONS....and You can actually write MOST companies via their web sites to SEE if they are /can sending out samples, coupons. TYPICALLY for those of you who don't coupon - if you WAIT about 3-4 weeks and get ALL the grocery sales ads - the coupons you get today will have maybe one or 2 items on sale - (if lucky) if you WAIT and check the stores - you will have better chance to USE those mature coupons. Also REBATES - OMG there are so many rebates out there it's not funny - I got butter sticks for free - you have to be savy and get one rebate per house, so when I get them I buy separate and then send the recipt to a friend who is glad to give me the check when it comes - OR it's a nice surprise for my Mom - when she gets a few checks a month that add up to $10-$12.....all for the cost of a stamp and a rebate. :peaceful::raspberry-tounge: [/QUOTE]
