Auto insurance

Combine with your home owners insurance for a discount.
See if your employer gives you a discount.

Apples

When they are to mushy to enjoy eating by themselves. Cut them up put them in a little water with a drop or two of lemon juice let them cook and then blend them to make apple sauce. You can add sugar or do the natural kind. This is really good and much better for you.

Appliances

Check out garage sales and thrift stores for them. Sometimes you can find really good deals on gently used items.

Auto payments and insurance: if you have a multiple-vehicle loan, when it is paid down sufficiently you can request the title for one vehicle from your bank and therefore reduce your auto insurance coverage. We were recently able to reduce our coverage to just liability on one vehicle after getting the title from the bank and saved $200 in premiums.

Auto insurance (part 2): take a defensive driving course, let your agent know if you drive your cars very little (called "pleasure driving" if driven less than approx 7,000 miles per year), and have a higher deductible ($500 rather than $250) to save on insurance premiums.
