Swim in the backyard! Instead of driving ten miles to our local waterpark three times a week, we bought a softside pool with the money we earned from our garage sale. Not only will this save on gas, but it will keep the kids entertained without me having to pack up all the kids! We’ll still go to the water park during the summer, but not as much as we used to. And I might even get more things done around the house!
So what about you? Do you plan on cutting back on cable (we don’t have it) or curbing your latte spending? I’d like to know. Add your link to your Summer Saving Tip to Mr. Linky below and let’s start saving! Just click on YOU’RE NEXT to see the list of participants and add your link!

This is a good idea…we were just in your state this weekend for a wedding, and did you know your gas prices are .20 lower than ours? Lucky you!
If I come up with any $ savers I’ll remember this. We don’t usually go to the pool often and already have one of those soft side pools. We also have the slip-n-slide which keeps my 10,7 and 3 yo busy for HOURS. Yes, you should get tons done in the house!
