Re: Trimming the family budget... Oh, speaking of lights:
Using florescent light bulbs in place of incandescent ones saves BIG time on the wattage. They're a little more to buy, but last for years and use a lot less electricity.
Does your local Sam's Club have a gas station? Here, gas at Sam's is anywhere from $.10 - $.25 a gallon cheaper than anywhere else. But not every Sam's Club has a gas station. Does your car have a flexible fuel engine? Putting ethanol instead of straight gasoline in our Tahoe costs about $.15 less per gallon. Not every engine can run ethanol though. |
