Thrifty Thursday: Lots of Ways to Save

Some weeks it is very hard for me to come up with more thrifty ideas to share that might be helpful.  I have already shared 100 different posts on how to save money and even more additional posts that weren't in my normal thrifty Thursday posts because they were recipes or other ideas.  I have already tried to share all of the things that I do to save money in order to try to come up with more.  One of my most visited posts was my How to Reuse Plastic Bags with over 800 views.  There were two other high view posts about what I did during a week to save money including planning ahead.
