Hints from Heloise
Efficient decorating Dear Readers: HAPPY THANKSGIVING! Gobble, gobble, and let the football begin! You may be entertaining now, later on or for the new year. Here are a few Heloise hints to help save money and enjoy the event, too: — Make your centerpieces and buffet decorations from fresh, col- orful fruits, vegetables, nuts and greenery. I love decorative gourds. — There are plenty of free music-streaming services online, on cable and satellite. I tune in to a radio channel that plays holiday music all day. I keep it low in the background for just the right touch. — Try to shop with a plan. Who gets what, who might like what, or gee, let’s see what we can find for Uncle Ted. — An easy and low-cost way to have guests over is a hors d’oeu- vres drop-by between 5-7 p.m., or just desserts from 7-9 p.m. — Using several slow cookers is a simple way to simmer and serve! — If you hate cleanup, stock up on holiday plastic- and paperware. No one will bug you — it’s your event. — Heloise
It’s free! It’s yours! Dear Heloise: I can dispose of almost anything by placing it curb- side. Put the item you want to get rid of on your curb with a note: “It Works! It’s Free!” It will literally disappear. I read your column daily in the O.C. (Orange County) Register. — Keith N., Costa Mesa, Calif. Keith, how right you are! We once (over 30 years ago) put a HUGE (the size of a chest of draw- ers) copy/memo machine outside of the gate. I wrote “FREE TO A GOOD HOME ... broken, but has lots of good parts.” Someone pulled up in a pickup truck and loaded it, and it was gone before noon. — Heloise
Frantic Friday Dear Heloise: Tomorrow is one of the biggest shopping days, and these are some hints that help me and friends save a lot of money: Planning is critical. I scour web- sites and print advertising looking for big savings a day or two before. Electronics usually are deeply dis- counted. I get up super early, and pack snacks of fruit, nuts and pretzels to keep my energy up throughout the day. — J.C., via email It can be a hectic, stressful day. On the other hand, there are those who make a sport of it! — Heloise
Writing nice notes Dear Heloise: I cut out articles, with the source and date, too. In a nice, big mug, I keep scissors, a glue stick and tape, pens, correc- tion fluid, stamps, address labels, paper and envelopes. I like to write letters the old-fashioned way, and include articles of interest! — Lynne in New York Me too! I cut out cute or funny comics and slip them in a get-well card or note. — Heloise
Send a money-saving or time- saving hint to Heloise, P.O. Box 795000, San Antonio, TX 78279- 5000, or you can fax it to 1-210- HELOISE or email it to Heloise(@Heloise.com.
