Save Money

[Lisa James]

I recently came across two websites that are totally legit. One is freecycle.org and you sign up for the Erie, Pa group and everything is free. You can post free items or ask for items you may be in need of. Its like craigslist but all items are free, totally awesome. The other is thredup.com (no a in thread), I just signed up for this one so I don't know too much about it . But my dad heard about it on the news so I know its good. But from what I understand you trade toys and clothes with other ppl all around the country. They send you the boxes and I think after a while there is a small fee for the boxes. But you earn money when you send a box that can be used to buy other boxes. Even with the fee you get boxes filled with nice items for less then you can buy them second hand locally. I thought I would share my finds with all the other mothers who may be on a tight budget like myself. If anyone has any other good money saving sites or ideas I would love to know. Have a great day, and good luck!

freecycle is good, ive used it before and I also use thredup. Its $15 dollars to pick a box then you get to send a box free. You pay $5 for the box and you have to pay for shipping, flat rate $15. the website thredup gets the five bucks. I got one box and its ok, a bit pricey- Id rather see what Im getting for 15. I got a bagful of goodies from once upon a child for that and I knew everything I liked and fit well. Just each his own.

 

I like to thrift store shop, LB has soo many clothes- but I still buy adorable clothes when i see them.
