    Really good advice — I’m always looking for new money saving tips to add to my site, and I think I will add this now and link back! I may also do this myself — people see me as a bit addicted to JCPenney but the only reason I shop there so much is because I know how to save money there; however even I have my limits so Plastic Jungle looks like the place to go!

    Thanks for the tip :)
