One of my good friends and client has sent me some valuable information to pass along. The following is a copy of local Simi Valley resident Lynda Mason’s email. If you have any money saving tips, please use the comment section and let us hear from you.
Hi Ted,
Just thought I’d share with you a money-saving tip that I started doing a little while ago that you may want to share with your website “people”. To save gas, time, sales taxes (usually), and get it at a discount to boot!
I save up a list of items I will need in the next few weeks or so. Then I search the online Pharmacy stores that offer free shipping on minimum orders (i.e., drugstore.com or walmart.com). I search their sites for the best prices on the items I need (which are usually less than local stores), select the items that qualify for free shipping, and then place my order. If they don’t offer free shipping on minimum orders, I don’t buy from them. Your order is delivered to your door in about 5 to 7 days. You don’t waste your time or gas driving around town looking for the best prices, which, in most instances, you’ll save sales taxes as well. With gas prices rising, the economy slowing, and anyone working on a limited budget, this works great.
P.S. I also use this method for stocking up on my pets’ food and supplies.
Have a nice week!
Lynda
