I like to shop from time to time but I only use apps like Temu and SHEIN because they aren’t too expensive and some of their things are of good quality. I want to stop using it because I know they probably partake in child labor and I don’t want to support it, but it’s hard finding sites that are affordable. any recommendations? 👀

Hello! I was wondering what was the best heated mattress pad on the market that has no noticeable wires and a square design pattern. Thank you all in advance!!!

I've been wanting to buy a Handheld vacuum for a while now but haven't really known where to start looking. I am looking suggestions on products with good suction and long lasting life for a decent price, preferably $100 and under :)

This is a frugal shopping find group so look what I found. All three are 1.49 I only needed one so I don't walk out with nothing or being judged. I can't find any clearance pants under 5$ budget 8 metal piping icing tips stacked on each other so the package makes it look like there's only one. Compare to Joan fabrics USA store or Dollar tree USA store, be like 1.25$ or more per piece icing bottles and piping tips. So 1.49 for all 14 piece is a steal! 6.52 ringgit Malay, 1.16 pound sterling UK, 2.27 Australian dollars,229.68 Japanese yen. 10.70 Chinese yuan. Is it cheaper in your region? Brand doesn't matter.

Any suggestion which is good to buy with better battery life or that works when you park in woods 2/3 days.

Where does everyone get affordable costumes? Trying to let my kid pick her own but not break the bank.

Hi, I'm looking for towels to soak up water during the occasional flood in my apartment. Any ideas?

Hi all. I'm looking for a washer and dryer as I recently (well, last December) bought a house. It came with no appliances whatsoever, so I ended up buying an oven and refrigerator from Best Buy on a Best Buy credit card, which is now a bit less than half paid off with a 24-month no-interest financing plan. I've been doing laundry at a friend's house, but that tends to eat most of my Sunday every week between me and my partner's laundry, plus her washer kind of sucks. In the interest of getting my Sundays back and putting less strain on my friend's appliances and water bills, I'm looking to buy a washer and dryer myself.

Since I have the Best Buy card I'm most likely going to be looking at Best Buy; it has $1650 available credit to use before I hit the limit. I also have some money in savings, and we are going to be having a third person move in in a few months who has offered to help pay as well. Still, I'd rather spend as little as possible for a decent product, which is why I'm here.

I'm looking for something that will last at least ten years, as I plan to sell the house and move out west at that point. I'd prefer for it to be from Best Buy, and I don't mind if it's open-box or scratch and dent or whatever. I'm looking more for functionality than aesthetics. I've heard that their store brand Insignia is sketchy so I'd prefer to stay away from that one. If anyone has any recommendations I'd greatly appreciate it.

If it matters at all, I'm in the Pittsburgh PA region. Some of their stuff is only available in local stores (or it seems NOT available in my local stores), so that might be a factor as well.

I have seen some requests about phone plans around here but I'm not sure if they fit me so I was hoping if anyone else more knowledgeable can share

I'm interested in a phone plans for 1 user (in the u.s.)

• it has to do calls ofc and if international calls are doable that's a plus
• my main requirement that it's an unlimited data with the fastest data rates bc I have one with metro rn and it's only 2gb I believe for 30-40$?
• please have it be from a trustworthy company

I've seen mint mobile's advertising and idk if its worth it or even any good

so anyone with more experience or knowledge, I beg of you please help

Has anyone used the scratch remover kits? Do they work?

My current cell phone plan is with T-Mobile, which includes data for my iPad and Apple Watch, and protection plans, totals out to $190 a month. That's an insane amount to be paying each month and I'm looking to cut down on costs.

Here is what I would like to have with my service:

• Unlimited high speed data
• Hotspot
• Ability to stream Netflix, YouTube, etc. in 1080p. At the very least, I can deal with 720p.
• Protection for devices

Optional:

• Data plans for iPad and Apple Watch preferred, but I've decided I can do without these.
• International plans preferred, or at least cheap roaming charges, but not entirely necessary since I can just use an eSIM for this. At the very least I would still like to be able to talk/text internationally.

That said, what are my options? I'm trying to gather as much data as possible on this and would like some suggestions. Thanks!

I recently got an eye exam done, but it was only for glasses. I’ve been wanting contacts, so is there anywhere I could order some decent contacts without paying an arm and a leg?

Was considering online stores like Shein but not sure about quality and fit, looks like more hassle rather than walking into store and trying.

Some of places might be Burlington, Marshalls, Ross.

Thank you !!

Have you ever traveled outside the US for healthcare or dental care? not as a resident of that country, but as a medical or dental tourist? Would you mind sharing the details? quality of care? cost difference? would you repeat the experience? Any details would be appreciated.

I bought a leather jacket at the Reserved store, but I have lost it. Can you tell, are there any websites where I could search for it, including second-hand options? It is this model I am looking for 6653H-99X.

I may have found a bowl on FB marketplace but I still need to hear from them about how much it holds 🤔 that I need a borosilicate jar or beaker… where would I find a cheap one?

So I am trying to get a nice frugal car deal going I'm in mass I know tax free weekend is this weekend and I want to get a used PHEV so I can also claim the 4k tax credit 🫡 which I need for back taxes.

My question to reddit anyone in mass know any killer tax free weekend deals?

Also would appreciate any negotiation tips, thank you!

I like brands like Maybelline and L’Oréal. In fact, L’Oréal is the same company as Lancôme, but without the fancy packaging (confirmed this by Lancôme employee). But how do I get the best deal when purchasing drugstore makeup?

Don't need the latest and greatest technology. Just looking to upgrade an extra machine. Vendors that liquidate older PCs for businesses that have recently refreshed might be a good fit.

Thanks!!!

I know fancy brands like boars head are going to be better, but I don't have fancy taste buds and I'm just looking for something decently priced that tastes decently good. I tried some Aldi brand a while back that was in a plastic bag and it was terrible. Just trying to avoid that kind of stuff.

Does GreenRow do coupon codes? I’ve tried emailing them to ask and not received a response. Thanks.

Buyer beware of a company named “nomardic”, they are scammy and deceitful!! run the other way if you see an ad offering you a product from them. I was foolish enough to trust them and ordered the supposed leather boots with wool lining, they finally arrived a month after ordering and they are cheap plastic with some fuzzy lining not even close to what was advertised, do not respond to your emails, so you’re just screwed out of your $50. Just wanna put the word out there to warn others! Thanks for listening to my rant. ✌🏽

Is www.licastore.com legit?

Have you heard of this e-commerce website? Claiming to be on online shopping store. I tried creating a seller account and when you try to fund your account so could process orders, it’s asking you to pay/send the money to a personal account, instead of a company account. I need to hear your thoughts. Thanks in advance.

We're looking for a couch that doesn't need to last forever, but will be comfortable for at least a few years (on a budget and our puppy is still puppying).

Specifically interested in hearing about the quality of stores we have nearby like: big lots, rooms to go, (I've heard Ashley is no good).

We're in western NC and don't mind traveling as long as they deliver. I know there are discount furniture places somewhere but not sure where to start.

I'd like a pair of everyday headphones for just listening to music and videos on my desktop computer. I will also be buying a pair of more expensive headphones for music production, but I think I want to have an inexpensive "daily driver" pair to save wear and tear on the good ones.

However, I am dissatisfied with everything I've bought so far. I'm currently using an $8 pair of Panasonic headphones but this is the third pair and inevitably the plastic loop breaks and I have to superglue it back together and I don't get the angle quite right. Plus, wearing them for a long time, like to watch a whole movie, hurts my ears (I wear glasses). On the plus side, their cords are surprisingly resilient and the sound is fairly good.

I tried a cheap pair of Koss headphones as well and the fit/feel was awful and the sound was tinny and just bad.

I have wireless earbuds, but having to keep them charged is a pain for things other than exercise sessions.

Can anyone recommend a pair of reasonable yet frugal headphones that one can wear for hours without ear pain?
