Money Saving Idea - Household

Shorten your dryer-vent hose. First, disconnect it and vacuum it out. Then trim the hose so it's just long enough for you to pull the dryer a few feet out from the wall. A short and unobstructed line makes your dryer run more efficiently. And cutting takes only a few minutes.

Cost: Free.

Savings: $25 per year on electricity, natural gas, or propane.

Bonus: Your clothes dry about 20% faster, so you spend less time on laundry. The savings in energy is good for your pocketbook, and it benefits the environment, too.

FREE Lunch at Ted's Montana Grill

It's Friday and that means you can sign up for a coupon for a free $8 lunch entree from Ted's Montana Grill. Just go here, fill in your email address, choose the correct answer and you'll receive a coupon via email for a free $8 lunch entree.

You can register for a new coupon every Tuesday and Friday through the end of October!

Pepsico Coupons

Go here to print some hard to find Pepsico products coupons:

• .25¢ off Pepsi products
• .25¢ off Sobe Life Water
• .25¢ off 64 oz. Dole fruit juice

Money Saving Idea - Household

Turn down the thermostat on your water heater. It's probably set at 140ºF to shorten the wait time for a steamy shower. But 120ºF or even 110ºF is plenty hot.

Cost: A few minutes with a screwdriver in the utility room.

Savings: $30 or more per year on gas, oil, electricy or propane.

Bonus: You get the peace of mind that comes with knowing your kids are less likely to scald themselves with scorching water.

Tuna Coupons

The Starkist coupon was available a few days ago but went like hotcakes and I didn't even get to print it before it was gone! So I was so excited to see it reappear!

Go here to print a coupon for $0.50/1 pouch of Starkist tuna. This is often on sale for $1 or close to $1 at many stores so if your store doubles coupons, you should be able to get this free or almost-free.

You can also get a coupon here for $1/1 Bumble Premium tuna pouch. Stock up on tuna on the cheap!

FREE Lunch at Ted's Montana Grill

It's Tuesday and that means you can sign up for a coupon for a free $8 lunch entree from Ted's Montana Grill. Just go here, fill in your email address, choose the correct answer and you'll receive a coupon via email for a free $8 lunch entree.

You can register for a new coupon every Tuesday and Friday through the end of October!

Check their website for a location near you.

Pasta Coupons

There's a coupon here and here for $0.75/1 No Yolk or Wacky Mac pasta. These are regularly priced around $1.50 and sometimes go on sale for close to $1. If your store doubles coupons, these would be free. And even if your store doesn't double coupons, these would still be a great deal if you pair this coupon with a sale.

You can also print out two coupons each here and here for $1/2 Ronzoni Smart Taste and Ronzoni Healthy Harvest.

Thanks, Frugal Living and Having Fun!

Money Saving Idea - Household

Close closet doors to lower the square footage you're heating (and cooling). Shutting closet doors along exterior walls also helps insulate the house.

Cost: Zilch - although it might take a few minutes for your clothes and shoes to reach room temperature before you put them on.

Savings: About $50 per year off your energy bills.

Bonus: You and your guests won't see closet clutter. No one has to know if things aren't wonderfully organized.

Money Saving Idea - Household

Replace central air conditioning filters every month during the summer to keep air flowing freely through the ducts and reduce strain on the unit. This simple step takes only a few minutes. Try choosing a particular time - for instance, the first Saturday of the month - so you don't forget.

Cost: About $11 for three filters.

Savings: 1% - 2% on cooling costs.

Bonus: New filters keep dust and mold from collecting on condenser coils, extending your AC's life. You also improve the air quality in your home by reducing the spread of allergens, allowing you to breathe easier.
