September 03, 2010 03:11 AM EDT -- How I Shop While Being Frugal I learned to be frugal as child. We did not have much money growing up. I began working summers in the 7 th grade. I bought my own food to pack my lunch with and paid . . .         Thomas E.         You can also get coupon codes by going to google and then typing in the companies name and writing in coupon codes. And then you pick the one best for you.     DiAnA D.     i shop Good Will.. amazing what bargains you can find.. even brand new things which I use as gifts for birthdays and Christmas! Instead of heading to the mall head to Goodwill! They have everything!!       Elaine A. t     I shop for free at Amazon. because most of the survey sites & Swagbucks have a get paid with Amazon.com Gift certificates. Last year 75% of my husband's gifts were from Amazon & were Free from the Amazon Gift Certificates I got For Free!     Risa G.       I love consignment store shopping. I always find something in the Dollar Bin that definitely doesn't belong like a Ralph Lauren Sweater, a J. Jill t-shirt and a silk shirt. All $1. I also found a pair of Lucky Brand jeans for $15 and then 25% off the tag price.
