Is your music still playing? 

What color would you call the grass in your yard?  I would call mine ‘less-than-green.’  I’m slightly optimistic.

This year I’m determined to help our grass grow greener.  I really want our lawn to look more welcoming.

The question is, “How exactly does one obtain and maintain a healthy yard?”

After researching I have pulled together 3 easy ways to get the green yard we’re all longing for without having to pay the cost of professionals to do the work.

Fertilize and fertilize again.  Most people think fertilizing their yard once a year is good for their lawn.  Research shows that lawns that are fertilized 2-4 times a year show lush growth.  Save 8% on lawn fertilizers and fertilizer spreaders with discount Sears gift cards from Plastic Jungle.  You can also save 7% on lawn care needs with Plastic Jungle discount Lowe’s gift cards or Home Depot discount gift cards.

Cut grass to a healthy length.  The pros say that when you cut grass too low it makes it easier for weeds to grow.  So what exactly is a healthy grass height?  It is recommended that no more than 1/3 of a stalk of grass be cut off each time you mow.  This means that keeping a regular eye on grass growth is important as a few days of rain can increase how soon you might need to mow.  Discount Sears gift cards, discount Lowe’s gift cards, and discount Home Depot gift cards are great for saving on lawn mowers, riding mowers, and lawn tractors.  My dad loves his lawn tractor.  He says that the task feels more like an enjoyable ride.

Keep grass clippings for your yard.  Research from the University of Florida indicates that by dropping clipped grass into your own yard you are doing a lot of good for your lawn and for the environment.  Most of today’s mowers have a mulch feature that cuts grass blades multiple times so you don’t have to worry about picking anything up.  Putting cut grass back into the soil has three great benefits: (1) It puts nitrogen and other essential elements like phosphorus, potassium, manganese and iron back into the soil, (2) Cut grass actually helps decompose thatch (think leaves, dead stems, and roots), and (3) Keeping your clippings actually cuts down on the amount of waste in landfills.  It is estimated that cut grass accounts for 10% of landfill waste.

Make Plastic Jungle discount gift cards part of your spending strategy, and you’ll spend less all year long.

No longer is finding a good deal only about having a coupon or finding a sale.  In this day of age, deal stacking (using multiple discounts all on one purchase) with Plastic Jungle discount gift cards is the way to maximize your savings.

Ready for a quick breakdown of how to save all year long?

Routine Shopping

Weekly or monthly you probably visit a lot of the same retailers.  Some for groceries, some for household items, and some for gasoline.

Are you buying produce and general food staples  as well as cleaning supplies and toiletries at Target, Walmart , or Sam’s Club?  Buy discount Target gift cards before you stock up and save 3% off refilling your pantry, refrigerator, and shelves.  With discount Walmart/Sam’s Club gift cards, you can save 2% off every day purchases from paper products and snack foods to laundry detergent and cosmetics.   

Gasoline discounts are rare to find most anywhere so it’s no wonder Plastic Jungle discount gasoline gift cards sell fast.  Take a few minutes to set up a Plastic Jungle account and tell us which gift card brands you’d like to alerted about, including BP and Arco discount gift cards and Exxon-Mobil discount gift cards, so you can be among the first to get your hands on these discount gift cards when they’re in stock.

Big Purchases

What gadget, appliance, or electronic device are you hoping to purchase this year?

Big ticket items can make many of us cringe at the thought of dropping an enormous amount of cash on one purchase.  Take some of the sting out of making a big purchase by planning to use discount Plastic Jungle gift cards for the purchase. Last year, my husband and I saved $595 (33% off) when we furnished our house with blinds by stacking Plastic Jungle discount Home Depot gift cards (available for 7% off) with a store sale and coupon. Read about our story here.

Gift Giving

Chances are some time this year you are going to be invited to a wedding, birthday celebration, or special occasion where you’ll be on the hunt for the perfect gift.

Thanks to gift registries, much of the guess work on what to buy has been eliminated.  But… don’t merely rely on the gift registry, if one is available.  Consider giving the gift of a discount gift card to a store where your friend or family member has registered.  Or, you can always purchase discount gift cards to purchase gifts you’ll be giving to celebrate someone’s special day.  Find out how to save on gifts for weddings and showers here.

With Plastic Jungle discount gift cards you can save on purchases big and small year-round.
