• Save During Your 4th Of July Celebration

  
  

  
  Fourth of July is almost here. Can you smell the BBQ and fireworks?  Well if you're planning a few things, try to do without your wallet blowing up.  Here's a few tips from the Bargainist, that'll make sure you don't go crazy spending money on unnecessary things:
  

  Hit the Dollar Store - Before the big day, head to your local dollar store. You can pick up sparklers, paper plates and party supplies for a buck each.

  Stick to the Basics - The 4th of July isn’t known for crème brulee or caviar. For this holiday it’s all about the basics-- hot dogs, potato salad and ice cream. Thankfully these summer staples are among the cheapest at your grocery store so stick to the basics. Use this coupon to get a free Steaz ice tea ice tea when you buy one bottle. That will help you cheaply quench your summer thirst.
  

  Enjoy Free Music - The best events have the perfect soundtrack. Download free patriotic music on Amazon to give your 4th a festive feel.

  Rent a Patriotic Film - Pick up a movie with a patriotic theme. Whether it’s Independence Day with Will Smith or Apollo 13 with Tom Hanks, avoid the sweltering heat by watching a movie from the comfort of your air conditioned living room. You can even get a free rental from Redbox by checking out this list of coupon codes.
