How to Save Money on Everyday Items

There are simple ways that you can save money on everyday items. Here's how.
Instructions
Step 1
Clip coupons for groceries. This is a great way to save a nice chunk of change when going to the grocery store. You can get coupons from almost anywhere and they are widely accepted.
Step 2
If you are a student or avid reader, try using Amazon.com to order your books. They usually have low prices and offer new and used books. Amazon also sells many other things besides books. Try looking around and consider purchasing other items through this reliable website.
Step 3
Try using your credit card(s) that have benefits for buying certain things, such as gasoline or groceries. You can make free money just by spending your own on gasoline or groceries that you would buy anyway.
Step 4
Target and Walmart are great places for cheap clothing. They have a decently large selection with great prices. They are also great at offering other items for competitive prices.
Step 5
Try getting friends and family to help whenever possible. This involves routine errands such as getting a haircut if your friends know how, washing your own car at home, cooking food and eating leftovers for a day or 2 later, etc etc. Try to cut corners whenever possible without hurting essential needs.
