Save Some Money Any Way You Can
INTERESTING TIPBITS (ha ha instead of tidbits--Okay, I apologize, it is late, I'm punchy and I just thought it was silly). Save money by choosing the cheaper fonts. This little piece of tippage I picked up from Shop Smart Mag. The Shop Smart engineers printed 27% more pages per ink cartridge by using 12 point Times New Roman font rather than Arial (which kind of stinks because I love Arial). Calibri is also listed as an ink saver. Ladies here is a little makeup tip that I don't believed I have shared though I have known about it for ages. Did you know that Lancome is owned by L'Oreal? Also Jane is owned by Estee Lauder. So if you are fond of those more expensive brands and are interested in saving a little cash, this is a great way to go. I have gotten to the place where I exclusively use L'Oreal's foundations rather than the more expensive brands (I have VERY sensitive skin and they never give me a problem). I have also heard that L'Oreal owns Maybelline as well, but I am pretty fond of the L'Oreal products themselves. Make that buying decision even smarter by taking advantage of coupons. You can find many coupons for L'Oreal products in your Sunday paper, and quite often you can get buy 1 get 1 free deals at drug stores like Walgreen's or CVS on L'Oreal which will make that makeup purchase an even better bargain. Try them out. WEBSITE NEWSI try to share an interesting website whenever I can. Today I thought I would share Glyde with you. Glyde is a sale site where you can sell your books, DVDs, games, iPods, tablets and phones. Of course you can also go there to purchase the item. Basically it works like this, you post your items for sale, you pay Glyde 12% of the first $100 and then 8% on the rest and for the mailer. When a person purchases your item, Glyde sends you the mailer, you mail the item, and when the buyer receives the item, you get the money credited to your account. It is a very simple and easy way to make some money with those items that you have around the house that you probably don't use. I know we have often bought DVDs that we just had to have, and then find that we NEVER watch them. Check out Glyde and learn more at the link below. OHHHH! I forgot, if you get friends to sign up for Glyde, you can get $2 for every friend that makes a purchase. Of course don't refer someone just to make the referral money. Check out Glyde for yourself. It has been written up by the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, as well as Forbes. LINK: GlydeFREEBIESTake the pledge to not be a money trasher, and CVS will give you $2 in ExtraBucks.

Great tips, thanks. I didn't know about the font saving ink but it makes sense.

I didn't realize that about the ink. I will print everything in Times New Roman from now on!
