Good Housekeeping Good Deals & Smart Steals Giveaway

I had the opportunity to review GoodHousekeeping's new book Good Deals & Smart Steals: How to $ave Money on Everything!

I admit, it's a fun read. The book is small enough to fit into your purse, so you can pull it out when waiting on the kids and learn a trick or two.

Here are some of my favotites:

Save $40 a month by lowering your thermostat by 2 degrees!

The rinse and hold cycle on your dishwasher is more efficient tan your sink to rinse only a few dishes.

Make yor own ice tea and use fruit juice for flavor

The book has Services tips, Travel tips and Car tips as well as household items and daily living!

To win, leave a comment with your money saving tip! I will pick a random comment next Monday, October 20th!
