Unique Ways To Save(NAPS)—The economic picture may be brightening, but many consumers arestill feeling the challenges from the past few years and planning ahead to savemoney. That means they’ll look for sales and use coupons. In addition, somewill think outside the “money-saving box” this holiday shopping season.One unconventional savings strategy that shoppers plan to try when buying giftswill be haggling over prices. In fact, a recent survey found that more than fourin 10 are likely to consider haggling as a tactic to save money on holiday shop-ping this year. Seven percent said it’s very likely they will haggle.If haggling isn’t quite your style, there are a variety of other ways you can savemajor money this shopping season:• Dollar stores: When most items at a dollar store are $1, you’re guaranteed tosave more money than if you purchased similar items at a different store, espe-cially if you’re on the hunt for inexpensive stocking stuffers. Keep quality inmind when you’re selecting gifts, though, to ensure they are safe and intact. • Garage sales: It may take some effort, but there are inexpensive treasures to befound at garage sales that can round out your holiday shopping. Join the one-quarter of U.S. adults who said they would consider shopping at garage salesthis holiday season and you might come across some hidden gems. Get startedby checking community boards and neighborhood newsletters or look online tofigure out when people near you are hosting a garage sale. • Pawnshops: Fifteen percent of U.S. adultswill consider shopping at pawnshops to saveserious cash this holiday season. Jewelry,DVDs and tools are just a few of the greatbuys to be had but keep expectations to a mini-

mum. Understand that all the items are used and may not be of the highest quality.• Follow up-to-the-minute coupons: Coupons have long been a traditional money-saving method, but keeping track of all theoffers, daily deals and specials happening can seem overwhelming. Fortunately, with CouponCabin.com’s Newsflash, all the latestand greatest deals are posted constantly, so you’ll never miss a coupon again. You’ll always be among the first to know about thebest coupons available so you can save as much money as pos_sible. You can find it at www.couponcabin.com/newsflash.A little ingenuity can help you save big this holiday season.
