Money Saving Tip #112: Buy Used Movies

If you feel compelled to purchase a movie with the anticipation of watching it many times, don't rush out to your local store and buy it new. Used DVDs and VHS tapes are usually just as good.

While at our local book store, my husband showed me a DVD he wanted to buy on sale for $10. Before I let him purchase the movie, I got on my iPad to see how much I could buy it used at ebay.com. I was not surprised to find it for $5.99 plus free shipping. I bought it on ebay before we walked out of the book store, and I saved $4.00.
