What to do with that Junk Metal?

The other day, when I was cleaning out my shed, I was throwing tons of heavy metal bars on the yard thinking, “what is this” and most importantly “how am I going to get rid of this”?! These pieces were as tall as I was! A friend suggested putting it on craigslist for free as some people sell scrap metal. So then I thought, if others are making money off junk like this, can I do it too?

It looks to me like it couldn't be easier to get rid of this stuff!

Check out http://www.survivalinsight.com/scrap-metal-for-cash.html for information on what qualifies, how much it’s worth, and ways to find it.

Then check out your local yellow pages for scrap metal buyers, if you live in Maine, I’ve already done it for you! http://www.superpages.com/yellowpages/C-Scrap+Metal+Buyers/S-ME/
So take that trash and turn into something useful, like cash!!!

Add Up the Savings With Online Coupons

Do you have a printer? Then don’t let these deals pass you by! Check out the following websites for the best coupons. Remember though the three rules of using a coupon: 1. Work around other deals – Check your local circulars, see where you will get the best bang for your buck with this coupon 2. Usage – Will you use this product and is it really cost efficient to use this product with the coupon over a cheaper version? Be sure to price shop, along with examining how much you get for the cost. For example. There are 2 boxes of cereal, one at 30 ounces for $1.50 and one for 50 ounces for $2. Buying the one for $2 is the best bang for your buck because you get just under double for only 50 cents more. 3.

Update

It's been a long time since I last wrote, luckily I have very few readers to apologize to ;) So what's new... well the garden is looking great, I just discovered that butternut squash produce very beautiful large yellow flowers. The ducks are just about full size now and that is just in time for the start of my new hobby of furniture restoration. A friend introduced me the the most inspiring site for this; http://betterafter.blogspot.com/. This site showcases furniture, decorations, and rooms that have all been redone and brought back to life. Why do I love this so much? Because it's green, it's cost effective and it's domestically savy! *Photos to come of my "better after" items. My two cents about furniture restoration; Sprucing up something you already own, free furniture, cheap furniture from a yard sale is a great way to recycle and also keep you from buying an unsturdy piece of furniture from a large corporation store which will inevitably break.
