If you're in the market for a new mattress, don't fall into the trap of buying a matching box spring or foundation support if you don't need it. Just make sure your foundation support's warranty won't be voided if you put a new mattress on top. If it won't, you'll not only save a few hundred dollars from not having to buy a new one, you'll have one fewer thing tossed to the curb when you replace your bed. Less waste and more savings!

If you drive only locally, there’s no need to have a spare tire in your car -- especially if you don’t know how to replace it. A spare tire weighs about 39 pounds, which reduces your car’s efficiency by 1 percent. That’s an extra $50 in lost fuel savings. Instead, keep a can of Fix-A-Flat, which can temporarily inflate a flat tire, so you can drive to a repair shop and get it fixed.

Installing new marble or granite countertops can be very expensive, but for resell value of your home, it’s a great investment. Here's a simple way to save money and "reuse" a mined material: Visit your local fabricator and ask to shop its yard of discards or leftovers. These are giant slabs that were either returned or are leftover from other jobs. Most stores will sell these to you at a significant discount and even cut, smooth and install it.
