Making Money Shopping
When we’re kids, shopping seems easy. Mom or Dad go to the store and get things. You ask them for something that looks delicious, and they either say yes or no. You don’t really understand everything that goes into it, especially if you’re a family on a budget. Back in the '90s and even the early '00s it was all about the coupons. A show had even been made called Extreme Couponing. Now, they have apps for that, and several of these apps are extremely useful.

When we check out books, we do not consider the amount of care it takes to process and care for thousands if not millions of books every year.
