Money Making And Saving Tips For Hard Times Ahead

I think a lot of people are going to benefit from learning about cutting back on expenses, whether you're unemployed, forced into part time work or to keep up with rising costs. A site I've found and wanted to share has some pretty good money saving tips and can be found at Martins Money Tips. And don't forget to tend that garden for a good output at harvest time.

To make the garden a little more pleasurable and seem like less of a chore, you might want to plan a pleasing garden design for next season. Use your imagination or look up ideas for low cost ideas and start now in planning to implement them. One thing that is very rewarding is the addition of lighting for in the night garden.

If you are lucky and produce more food than needed, you can always set up a little stand in some areas and earn money from your bounty. This and yard saling are good ways to make money from home without costing anything. Or if you really have a large bounty from your garden, you may be able to set up and sell at a local farmer's market. Why not turn it into your own money market rather than spending money there?
