Tips to be a smart shopper

• when in doubt,delay your purchase. a week's time will give u a fresh perspective
• remember that the cheapest buy is not always the smartest buy.quality goes a long way.
• remember that u'll often spend more when buying from a catalog. if u go to the store directly, u can take advantage of sales and avoid shipping charges
• consider shopping at "scratch-and-dent" outlet stores.sears in one store that has them. the damage to furniture and appliances is often hidden or minimal
• when shopping 4 smaller items, like groceries, compare prices by weight or quantity.
