Put Your Bananas in a Bag to Make Them Last Longer

Posted by Ney@ShopahoicSavers.com on March 25, 2013 None comments

I love to keep bananas in the house. They are a cheap, easy, and healthy snack. However, they go bad quickly. To make them last longer I simply take the plastic shopping bag that they come in from the store and twist it closed. When I take a banana off of the bunch I re-close them in the bag. They last about a week longer than they would otherwise. I have no idea why this works but it does.

Make Your Own Small Pet Hammock

Posted by Ney@ShopahoicSavers.com on March 24, 2013 1 comments

I saw a really cute, little, pet hammock at the Pet store and I thought that Benny (our pet rat) might like one. I didn’t want to buy one without trying to make one first. We have a lot of clothes that we don’t want, sitting in our garage, left over from our last yard sale so I picked out a sweater I thought might work. I cut it below the arms to remove the top and make a double layered square. Then I cut it in half at the seams to make it a single layer. If you use a thinner material you might want to leave two layers but this material was thick enough. Then I took four large paper clips and clipped it onto the top of the cage. And Voilà a free pet Hammock!

Benny wasn’t too sure about it at first. She liked the soft material but we did end up putting her house underneath it for more support. Now she likes to sit up there and chill.

Combine Your Old Compacts to Make a New One

Posted by Ney@ShopahoicSavers.com on March 21, 2013 1 comments

It’s that time again. I finally saved enough broken compacts to make a ‘new’ one. I used to throw away my compacts when they broke or ran really low but not anymore. Click HERE to See How to Fix a Broken Pressed Powder Compact.

Today, I simply broke up the remaining pieces and combined them into one empty compact.

Then I added rubbing alcohol and mixed it together until it turned into a clay like substance. You don’t want to use too much or it will dry extra hard (You can still use it, it will just be harder). And now I just have to wait for it to dry. Rubbing alcohol is also a sanitizer so I know that the recombined makeup is clean. I know it looks a little sloppy when wet but when it dries it will look much more like one bought from the store. When it’s done it will be just like new!

I actually had more broken compact powder than I needed so I saved the rest for next time.

Candy’s Recent Designer Goodwill Finds

Posted by Ney@ShopahoicSavers.com on March 20, 2013 2 comments

This post is by my sister Candy who is a frugal fasionista. She knows designer brand names and always finds the best designer deals!

For years my mother, sister, and I have been thrifting but more recently I have become obsessed with shopping at Goodwill. One of my goals for this year was to shop for all my new clothes at Goodwill and other thrift stores in my area. Instead of going straight to the mall when I need a new shirt or dress I head to Goodwill, which is conveniently a few minutes away from my local mall. Also there is a Goodwill on the way to the university I attend. Also the stores in my area offer a 10% off student discount which I always take advantage of. Here are some of my recent finds:

Toms Wedges-Retail 69.00 I paid. 5.99 . When I first tried them on they were a little tight but I bought them anyways because I was determined to squeeze my feet into those wedges. A few weeks and sore feet later they are probably the favorite pair of shoes I own.

Now I have been wanting these Kino sandals for about four years now but they are only sold in Key West or online and “ain’t nobody got time” to take a trip to the keys for 13 dollar sandals. I got mine for $3.99. Not necessarily as cheap as I would have liked but I have no intentions of taking a vacation to the Florida Keys anytime soon.

This is a Kathy Von Zeeland purse I recently purchased for $3.99 at Goodwill. This is my second purse of this brand and the first one I have was $30 on clearance at Marshalls, but I received it as a gift. I love this purse and I am currently using it.

The next item I am really happy I bought. I recently took a trip to Kentucky. While there my family and I decided to go to Goodwill. This was literally the worst Goodwill I have been it. Super sketchy but I found this amazing H&M coat for $5. (It looks a lot lighter in the first picture, the second picture is closer to the actual color)

One of the best items to buy at a thrift store is books. I never pay full price for text books or books I read for entertainment. I’ve been wanting to read this book for a while now but I just hadn’t found it at an affordable price. Then I found it at Goodwill and .99 cents is good for me.

Keep in mind with all of these items I also received 10% off with my student discount for showing my student ID. I love shopping at Goodwill but I also do my part and donate whatever items I have at home that my family members or I do not need.

3-19-13 CVS Couponing Trip

Posted by Ney@ShopahoicSavers.com on March 20, 2013 3 comments

Tonight I quickly ran to CVS at almost midnight when I got off of work. I wanted to take advantage of the cheap Finish deal, especially after paying $3.99 for dishwasher detergent when we ran out, because it really does seem to work a lot better than cheaper dishwasher detergents. I also wasn’t sure when else I would be able to make it to the store. I like shopping at the 24 hour CVS in the middle of the night because there usually isn’t anyone else in the store and the cashier’s don’t feel rushed when you hand them coupons.

So here are the deals I did-

$1.99 ECB When You Buy PAAS Easter Egg Decorating Kit, $1.99 Limit 1
Note- I bought this first so I could use the ECBs on my next transaction

Finish Dishwasher Detergent- On Sale 2/$8
– Used $1.25/1 Finish Quantum Powerball Tabs or Gelpacs in the SS 3/17
Cost After Coupons- $2.75
Note- Not the cheapest I’ve ever gotten it but still an ok price since I’m out

Coca-Cola products, 2 liter, 99¢ Limit 5
-.25/1 Coca Cola, 2 Liter CVS Coupon from the Coupon Center
Cost After Coupons- 74¢

Totals for Both Transactions-

Spent- $12.98

Saved- $19.40

Using The Flowers Around You

My mother inspires me to enjoy the beauty around me more often! She often picks flowers from her yard and puts them into her antique glass swan in the entrance way to her house. Beautiful, simple, free!
