I def buy clothes in the kids section… the joys of being tiny! But the last time I went outlet shopping, I was horrified by the quality of the items. Yes, it has a good label, but it usually isn't the same quality as the non-outlet version.

I usually buy kids t-shirt since I'm petite and it really saves me a lot … the rest I have to take your advice for that. For sure it will also work for me. I just didn't figured out that yet until I read your blog. Sweet.

We're planning to save about $1000 by Easter. We actually started about two months ago, severely slashing our eating out expenditures and cooking at home. We also use Netflix and the library moreso than Amazon and Bestbuy. Plus we've set up saving goals for ourselves to motivate the family.

When I worked at a clothing retailer in high school, we could use our employee discounts for anyone – it was 50% off for employees themselves (which means that if I'm a size S I can't buy a men size XXL and claim it's for myself), and 30% off if we're buying for anyone else. I think our limit was 6 items per month for ourselves and maybe… another 6 items per month for other people? I assume that's what Mr. Credit Card's talking about.

AAA discounts are always a good standby, but sometimes I've found I can get better deals through other coupons. AAA is consistent and wide-spread, but it's never the lowest discount.

My husband used his student id to buy my computer from Apple as well, it was $100 off and I think almost the same off of the Apple care. If you work for a company or have AAA, you may be missing out on a lot of discounts so you should look into that. I know AAA members get discounts at tons of hotels, at outlet malls (in Cali), and once upon a time at Best Buy! My husband's company gets 20% of phone service at Verizon & AT&T.

I know that Washington state honors the zero sales tax of people from other states. So when I had an Alaska driver's license, I could get sales tax waived. I am not sure if other states do this, but I definitely helped out a friend or two with a big purchase. When it's almost 9% you're looking a hefty price hike on things like Playstation consoles.

I spent about $400 for mine and I couldn't be happier! I've had it for 5 or 6 years and I still love it. It was a store brand–albeit a high-end, independent, eco-friendly store.

Great tips! I'm not a student but I have a student discount card that says "valid photo ID not required" that I use. I will usually only shop at stores that I can use this card at, unless they are having an amazing sale.
