  • i like this woman she is so smart and so helpful to her diffrent tips in life :) hope you can share more helpful tips :)

  • @claude4441

    Thank you so much for supporting The Discount Trendsetter Show.

  • I lent a "friend" money and never got it back. The bad news is that when she asked she said it was an emergency so I actually had to borrow the money I gave her. Needless to say I had to repay the person who lent me the money but as I said my own friend never gave it back to me. Afterwards she acted like it was nothing and the whole thing was already forgotten. Grrrrr

  • @mrsotter19

    Mrsotter19, I know how you feel. I am sure you will think twice about lending money again. lol

  • Yes! Lending money is the fastest way to waste it. I follow the Judge-Judy method which says that if an associate is asking YOU for money it means she already burned her family & close friends. But you forgot to mention GAMBLING. I always ask people who gamble how much are they going to bet and then ask them for half of that money. When they say no. I say, "Why not? You are about to give all of it to someone you don't know, at least you know I will put it to good use."

  • Honey,

    I didn't think about Gambling. You are so right. I have an uncle who spends $10 a month on Lottery Tickets. Yet, every month he is calling me for money. I am going to tell him to start betting on me instead. At least I will know how to manage his money. lol

  • Another way people waste money and dont realize it is eating out constantly

  • Don't lend money. Don't make a paper contract, simply don't lend money. The reason they need money is because they don't have it.

  • My mother always taught me to never loan money I couldn't afford to give away so I don't loan money. Love the tip on shopping off-season.

  • poplar? like the tree? =P

  • other reasons ppl waste money and not know:

    - Going to get expensive gas at popular stop when cheaper alternatives are available.

    - Ordering large pepperoni pizzas at other pizza chains instead of Little Caesar (cost $5 at LC).

    - Installing HD cables and digital services when you could had watch your favorites tv shows & movies online via Hulu or other websites.

    - Not canceling house phone when you got a cellphone.

    - Buying an Xbox 360 and got RROD 3 months later when you could had got a PS3.

  • @TheMetalPerson i agree,and guess wat wen u lend mony to ppl ,thy bloody somtim so shameless to return it on thr own, and it makes us feel so embarsing to ask ur own mony bak,

    u r rite the 1 who ask is the 1 who dnt hv it ,n thy dnt want to return it,thnx fr the tip

  • Just a heads up on an often missed skin care item. Shea butter, natural and unrefined, is incredibly cheap if you buy it online. You can use that straight for skin care or buy some essential oils to loosen it up and add some scent to it. The oil is pricey but a five dollar bottle will last you well over a year.

  • Girl. after my gym contract expired I left it alone and never look back. I'm losing weight doing cardio and riding my stationary bike at home.

    Now, buying in trial and error is something I'm learning to cope. I even used products that I somewhat like and know I won;t buy again.

  • I am guilty of buying beauty products and find out they dont work for me, most of the time i give products to those in need. Research about these beauty product it will save you so much money too.

  • @MONIEMAMA um durt da dur
