I’d never buy a new car.

we all are forced to buy new ridiculously priced new items occassionally....

a wedding present...new clothes for an unexpected event...something breaks down and you need to repace it.....

so we have to save at all the other times.....

garage sales and Goodwill......there really are bargains out there....

even my liberal dtr ( good person and nice however....lol) shops once in a while at Goodwill...she has a nice figure and finds lots of great second hand dresses....

Some of these they’re right, others they’re just plain wrong. Don’t buy used IKEA furniture, it’s disposable and doesn’t last. Used toys and games have a similar problem, kids tend to be pretty rough on toys and lose parts of games. Never buy a “used” pet, you have no idea what the previous owners have trained into it. Craft supplies it all depends on if it’s a one off project (go ahead and buy used) or you’re a crafter (buy new, you’ll use it up on your own). Way too many consumer electronics have unreplacable batteries which lose a good chunk of their charge holding ability every year, buying used to get you something basically useful.

I just paid $290 for a factory refurbished notebook computer that would have cost me $700 otherwise. The vendor offered a 3-year warranty and provided some great support as well.

I wouldn’t recommend trying this with toilet paper. Even on the top rack in the dishwasher it doesn’t last more than two or three uses.

Anything that flies or floats.

In fact, don’t buy them, rent them.

Food. Never buy new food. Used food is usually free and just as nutritious.

Guns. If you’re looking for a rifle, check the gun stores/pawn shops just before hunting season.
