"Handy Bits of Information Just for You."
Coupons
Use Coupons on trial sized items, when permitted, for free or extremely cheap items. If a coupon doesn't specifically state a size to purchase and doesn't word the coupon excluding trial size items, it's a go. You'd be surprised how many items are in my stockpile that were free because I took a minute at the store to glance over the travel section. Look for deodorant, laundry products, shampoo, razors and baby wipes just to name a few.
Household

Clean a baby bottle better with a spoonful of rice and swish with water.
Money
