this (as in Fusion Cash) is pretty much all i do. i'm big on "dreaming", as in i'm always trying to think of new ideas and ways to make some extra money, but i don't really do much to carry it out. the only other way i make money is by working. i probably should do the coupon thing though...that would save a lot!

I try to stick to a strict budget and use coupons and store promotions as often as I can.  I also use Kroger to get my gas so that I can get 10 cent off or 3 cent. It helps alot.

I do this, Fusion Cash. Coupons, the buy one get one free deals when it's something I know I'll need 2 of and I've tired to stop wasting so much. I do the Kroger gas thing too. It does help. Sometimes I just sell what I don't need/want anymore...old DVD's that I'm tired of go for $2.00-$3.00 each at the *bleep* shop.

The reason most people don't carry out ways to make extra money is they get too complicated. If you keep it simple and share your success to get referrals, it might surprise you what it can grow into.

Ways I save money.

1. COUPONS always at grocery store.
2. Rebates
3.  do Mypoints and earn points which I change into gift cards to Walgreens, CVS, BK, Sears.
4. Upromise - great for college savings for son earned over $1500 into his account so far.
5. Fusioncash as well as some PTC sites.
6. Sign up for all my prescriptions websites they send coupons to use toward my copay (asthma meds add up)
7. Sell things on ebay
8.  Hubby travels over 15,000 airline miles a month so we use his club miles forr airline tickets for our vacations.  Don't have to pay airfare for any long distance vacations.
9. Son and I tag along on some of hubbys work trips - use his company paid for hotel room - they pay our meals - and son and I make a vacation of things while hubby goes to work.  New Orleans, Houston, Norfolk, Bahamas were all work trips for hubby vacations for son and I over summer.
10.  Unplug things that use energy when not being used.  Washer, Dryer, Computer, Coffee Maker, etc.  saves about $30 a month.  
11.  Turn off AC or turn down heat in winter when we are away for the day or longer.
13.  Sign up for Petco and Petsmart Birthday program.  Get coupons the month my pups were born for free dog toys.

I could go on - but very long list.

always buy 2 for 1 and spend over $50 each week at Winn-Dixie to receive a $10.00 off on next purchase of $50.00 or more - that's a good deal - Health, Happiness, Peace, and Positive Perspective - IMHO >> In My Humble Opinion - The MUSEUM, Zazzle

I am always looking for sales, a good thing, is to cut coupons, look for the item on sale, then go to the store if they double it and get it for a good price, I remember the ventures, used to have triple coupon days, we would fill the basket for 20 dollars, and be completely stocked up. I don't think ventures is around anymore, don't know
