If you, your children, or your spouse are music lovers, consider downloading songs to your computer or smartphone instead of buying an entire CD.
My husband loves older songs. Luckily for him, I have been able to find most of his favorites on iTunes. Most songs sell for $0.99 or $1.29 per song. Buying a song instead of a $15.00 CD has saved us lots of money.
My daughter loves Selena Gomez, Katy Perry, and Carrie Underwood. I allow my daughter to use her own money to buy songs. In the past, I would buy her an entire CD, but she'd only listened to one song. I could have saved so much money back then if I had just bought the song instead of the album.
