Great ideas! Being a guy, I am especially fond of those twisty light bulbs. Especially in my 12 foot ceiling garage and our yard light. Before switching to those I was replacing the outside bulbs about every two months. It’s been almos a year since I replaced them with the twisty ones. How long do those things last?

Nice article! Another recommendation: a rice cooker. It is really, really convenient for cooking rice (all types), but can also be used to steam veggies and thinks like fish. I’m a new convert and love it!

Great ideas…but here’s one of mine: Use those DeMet turtle coupons and get them for almost FREE. I bought my daughter 11 boxes of them and wrapped them interestingly so she will never guess. She loves them….well, who doesn’t!!

You have my favorite book on your list! I can’t live without my Tightwad manual! The All You subscription is such a good idea! Wish I’d put that on my Christmas list!

I think this is an excellent list! I have utilized almost all of them, but needed the reminders! I need to use my crockpot and breadmaker more this year.

I love your blog and especially the CVS $5.00 challenges.

Great Post! I love all the ideas, and I thought that programmable thermostats were more expensive. I’m going to have to get one now. One thing though, Dave Ramsey has all his books on sale on his site now for 10.00 each for any of his books.
