Can only afford free things?
Join a local freecycle group. See www.freecycle.com. Or ask for free things on Craigslist. Coupons: They are annoyiing but they work if you buy only what you need. Sign up for a CVS card and get on their email list for valuable coupons. Buy coupons for the products you use on EBAY (“Tide coupon”). Check out different internet coupon sites. 411: Tired of paying for 411 directory assistance? Call 1 800 373-3411 for FREE 411. Put the number into your cell phone or memorize it. Need other kinds of help? Contact the local Volunteer Center (government-operated) and ask what programs may help you and offer you free clothes, etc. Here is really great advice: Even when things are tight, give to someone who has less than you do; God will repay you abundantly.
