kitchen renovations with home depot and chicken noodle soup

Have you ever done a home renovation and used IKEA, Home Depot, RONA, or even mom and pop somewhere.  Well the money saving tip for the day is to ensure that you remember where you placed your can opener after your kitchen renovations are done.  The lack of a can opener impedes the ability to each canned chicken noodle soup from Campbell’s soup and can result in lunch trips to IKEA’s Swedish meatball counter.  Sometimes some of IKEA’s 2 hotdogs for a dollar is good; and sometimes it’s bad.

 

Where is my can opener????

69 Ways to Feel Good About Keeping More Money in Your Wallet http://multipleeggbaskets.blogspot.com

Have you ever agreed to go on a coffee run with a friend or co-worker, ordered your black coffee, and then grabbed rabbit ears? I’m talking about pulling out no nickels, no dimes, no quarters -- nothing!

Well if you’re in dire need of re-balancing your debits and credits to favour in your direction then I highly recommend that you review my 69 Ways to Feel Good About Keeping More Money in Your Wallet.

1. Customer Loyalty: Join and participate in only a select few customer loyalty programs. If you constantly shop amongst several stores for common products then you’ll never acquire the benefits of the customer loyalty programs. I personally shop at one drug store for my food staples whenever they have a 20x times the points event. I then accumulate the points for free products at a future date.
2. Reduce your number of credit cards: I have 2 credit cards. One is a CIBC Aerogold Visa and the other is a Scotiabank Cash Back Rewards credit card.
3. Combine banking services: In order to reduce external ATM fees, I primarily work with CIBC and President’s Choice Banking. They offer interchangeable services which help me to avoid unncessary service fees.
4. Keep a minimum balance: If at all possible then make an effort to stay within the minimum banking balance requirement in order to avoid additional account fees each month.
