Dollar Savvy is a great new money saving website from RDA that’s slogan declares “Find & Share Your Dollar Savvy Tips.” With the crumbling economy I know everyone around me is cutting corners in every way possible. So those little tips and tricks that others use can come in handy for us, well Dollar Savvy has got those for you.
Some of my favorite tips are:
If you don’t want your bathroom or kitchen to smell like a “meadow” or a “freshly baked apple pie,” (unless you’ve just baked one) but you do want to minimize or neutralize odor, make a homemade air freshener by combining 1 tablespoon baking soda with 1 tablespoon vinegar in a small misting spray bottle. When the foaming stops, add a cup of water. Shake well to combine, and spray as needed in kitchen or bath. (Make a fresh bottle every two weeks for best results.)
And
To keep grilled fish from drying out, wrap whole fish or fillets in strips of smoked bacon. The bacon also enhances the smoky aromas of grilled fish.
The second tip adds my two favorite things together. Fish and bacon. I’m in heaven just thinking about it! I will certainly be trying that soon. Dollar Savvy is running a fantastic cash giveaway for great tips just like those. All you have to do is answer their “Cool Cash Question” with your very own tip.
