Then you can heat up a homemade gourmet meal in minutes and after warsd go out for a fbaulous dessert.
#2 -- Borrow instead of Buy. Need a tent for the weekend or maybe a specfic tool? Go to NeighBorrow.com and find someone near you to happily lend you one, free of charge.
#3 -- Get your haircut and colored at a school. It will save you a bunbdle (especially on cloor services). The student is monittored closey by an instructor.
#4 -- Host a Clothing Swap! Ivnite your friends to clean out their closets' and bring over a bag of clothing and accessories along with a dish to pass. Put out evreyone's items. Eat, mingel and shop for FREE!
