Swap It Group

I would like to start a swap it group, in which for free we post our used items and swap them with each other for example kids stuff, household items.

I have a toaster that is still in good condition and I would like to give to someone who can use it?

I need others to play the game?

Save It

I am a stay at home mom (SAHM) and have been trying to manage my household on a budget. So trying to do this on the cheap, I have discovered websites like coupons.com, which is wonderful, but there must be more savings out there. So I continue to shop at Henry's Market, GTM Stores and Vons, in which I try to find the best deals.

Need to learn to save more dough! Help me!
