I always get my ink cartridges refilled at a local place (well, maybe semi-local--I think they're a franchise) and am usually pleased with the results. I know I save $$ on those.<br /><br />And, I love Hulu! When hubby and I cx'd our cable last year, I switched to Hulu. Since the main shows we watch are on FOX and USA, they're all there, plus older shows I missed out on (like Magnum P.I. or Rockford Files). And, you can watch them when you want, and you don't have to worry about setting a DVR or VCR. <br /><br />The only thing I would disagree on is tax preparation. I am so paranoid about missing something big that could cause an audit or cause me to miss out on something that would add to my refund, I prefer to hire a good friend who is an accountant just for the stress reduction factors. I have used Turbo Tax in the past, but the stress is too great for me to deal with, and I constantly feel ill when thinking about putting together my 1040 every year.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10072706769675479529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-265772262233409826.post-65538887973103384212010-06-26T11:28:26.625-07:002010-06-26T11:28:26.625-07:00You have several good tips listed here.

While packing I was shocked to realize how much JUNK we have -- games we never play, toys the kids never use, books we've never read, magazines that are way out-dated, clothes we don't need ... the list goes on! This has been a great exercise toward minimizing waste and freeing storage space, not to mention a huge step toward saving money in the long run.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
