On my previous post, Living A Frugal Life, I mentioned that I have cut back on my entertainment expense by minimizing the number of trips to the movie theater - we normally wait until the movies come out in the DVD and rents them. Well I may have found a way to save even more on those rentals because of this online company. A few months ago, I ran into a website that promotes “earn cash or shares of stock while surfing the internet” and the members are free to join. Now, here is another company that promotes the same concept of ”paying you for doing what you are already doing “- watching commercials. Well, they don’t pay you cash directly but instead they reward you by paying your monthly subscription fees from companies like Gamefly, Major League Baseball (MLB.TV), National Basketball Association (NBA.TV) and in the future,  Blockbuster Movie Rental. Ford, NBC Universal, and US Airways and 27 other advertisers have also shown interest in testing this company out. Nope, I have not sign up with this company yet since I’m still waiting until Blockbuster inks a deal with them so I can enjoy renting DVDs for free!!

We hardly go to other local grocery stores unless the item that we are looking for is not available at Costco. We save a lot by buying in bulk on most of the grocery items that we use at home.
