I found myself in between an errand and an appointment today with time to kill. There was a Target store right next to the eye clinic my husband needed to go to, and we had about thirty minutes before it opened. He grabbed a table at the snack area to study, and I decided to cruise the aisles for penny pinching inspiration. What I found were six different items for children to have fun with this summer. All were plastic and packaging free, and all were between thirty-nine cents and five dollars.

Amidst the financial crisis, many home builders around the country have run out of financing. Last week a bank decided to completely level 16 completed and partially built homes in Victorville, California because the builder defaulted on the project.

A few months ago I shared a coupon code for Restaurant.com that allowed 80% off on their already discounted gift certificates, and that post was quite popular. Today I found that they have a great deal valid from today until February 15th, 2009 that gives 60% off their gift certificates and a $15 gift card for shopping at FTD. You could easily take care of both dinner and flowers for Valentine's Day with this deal.

Did you know that your local TV and radio stations regularly receive gift certificates as “payment” for air time? Believe it or not, retailers and restaurants are actually exchanging hundreds of gift certificates for exclusive air time on the networks.

Very quick and super deal for you folks, to follow my vent on mortgages. And considering what I was saying, we need to save every penny we can. Anyway, Sears is going a little gaga and selling off a whole bunch of decent clothes for 90% off, sometimes more! How much more? Well, when you click on the link you'll be greeted by items that have been reduced from $20-$30 to just 99 cents. I'm not even sure you could find a deal like that for a used sweater at a charity store.
