- Triple Clicks is a way to give back even if you don't think you can afford it. It is a gigantic web mall that contains mostly private seller listings, and offers you the opportunity to sell items that you no longer need--but unlike Ebay and other auction sites, a portion of the proceeds goes to support CARE, one of the largest international relief and humanitarian organizations in the world. It offers quality used items at huge discounts, and every purchase you make supports CARE. I encourage you to do your online shopping through Triple Clicks, and rest assured that you will make life a little bit brighter for struggling children around the world. More information here.

 - "Call international; pay local." This is wildly helpful if you need to make international phone calls and you're on a budget. LocalPhone provides an opportunity to make those calls from any mobile or landline or even from the web for an insanely cheap cost (rates depend on the country). You can also get a local number in any number of countries so that loved ones or business associates may call you at a cheaper rate, and send international texts starting at 2.7 cents per message. This website strongly supports students, as students get 100% extra free credit. And there's an iPhone app as well as an Android app!

 - A massive array of magazine subscriptions at discounted prices--over 950 magazine titles anywhere from 50% to 85% off. This is a premier resource for anyone on a budget. Category pages include LGBT magazines. Other popular titles include Ladies' Home Journal, The Economist, Better Homes & Gardens, Zoobooks, Newsweek, Harper's, SPIN, Family Circle, Men's Health and more. MagazineLine has the lowest prices available, guaranteed--they work directly with magazine publishers to secure the lowest prices for their customers.

  - Running a small business? An Ebay business?  If you're the entrepreneur type and, like me, are trying to find ways to earn some extra money and get out of debt, DollarDays.com is the most unsung resource for bulk wholesale products. From site: "DollarDays is the premiere online wholesaler and closeout company helping small businesses and entrepreneurs to compete against larger enterprises who buy bulk wholesale merchandise products. DollarDays offers 25,000 high quality goods at wholesale and bulk prices. Products are sold by the case and prices of our wholesale supplies are as cheap or in many cases cheaper than wholesale suppliers who buy in bulk. DollarDays prides itself on being a wholesale supplier who supplies existing businesses buying wholesale products as well as helping entrepreneurs open new stores and businesses."

  - This is just totally awesome. I'm single myself, but I have had so many friends and relatives get married and go through utter frustration trying to change their surnames. If you believe in being frugal with your time as well as with your money--because as those marketing geniuses always say, time is money--claw your way out of that huge pile of thank you notes and just click that mouse--literally for twenty bucks, these people will do it for you. That basic service will include the most important element, your Social Security card, as well as your driver's license. Throw in just another ten dollars and they do everything for you: they change your passport and your voter registration, and provide notification letters for your bank, the post office, the IRS, your doctor, mortgage lender, credit card company, etc. This service is worth every penny.  Don't forget to check our travel page and get started on those honeymoon plans!  More information here.
