Your own personal shopper -- free -- at J....

Filed under: Shopping The phrase "personal shopper" inherently has a certain air of snobbery about it, calling to mind that wealthy aunt who always bought the best Christmas gifts but whose over-the-top get-ups elicited constant eye-rolls from your mother. No more. J. Crew has quietly rolled out services that bring personal shopping to the masses -- by not charging for it. For guys, there's "Jack Knows Best." Here , male customers can read basic tips on blazers and bowties from a company stylist -- but they can also email him about specific sartorial conundrums at jack@jcrew.com .Continue reading Your own personal shopper -- free -- at J.

Lots more coupons coming to WalletPop!

Filed under: Bargains , Saving Money , Bargain Babe I'm a new blogger at Wallet Pop and my name is Julia. My goal is to post the best coupons for all the everyday stuff you buy, like groceries, clothes, and meals out. The little stuff ads up, after all! When I'm not sharing coupons on WalletPop, I'm searching for strategies to save money on household bills, seasonal events, and travel. Check out my daily savvy-spending tips at BargainBabe.com . Before I was a blogger I wrote for the Los Angeles Daily News, the New Jersey Star Ledger and the Jersey Journal. I learned to be frugal from my parents, who didn't have a choice. When I was little my dad made wooden recorders (yep, you heard me right) and my mom worked part-time so she could stay home with me and my two sisters. We drove a beat-up white Saab and ate at restaurants like, 11 times in my entire childhood. My parents passed on a lot of good money habits -- including how to be uptight with my credit card and pay it off every month -- but they never clipped coupons. So couponing is a habit I have learned through trial, error, and extremely patient frugal friends. Clipping coupon is not easy, mostly because it requires vigilance and organization, but it's not that hard, either. Together I hope we can learn tips to make the most from coupons and save ourselves a lot of money!

DVD wars come to online retailers

Filed under: Shopping , Technology First books, now movies, the price wars between the biggest retailers just keep getting hotter. Walmart, Target and Amazon are all slashing pre-order pricing on some hot new releases like "Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince." Walmart said Thursday it would reduce prices for soon to be released DVDs to $10 at Walmart.com. Target and Amazon quickly followed, threw in free shipping and forced Walmart to drop its prices down to $9.98. Keep in mind, the deals are for online pre-orders of movies not yet released. All this price cuttings seems like a great deal for consumers, but is it really? Highly competitive pricing can't be sustained for long, or extended to the entire category. Retailers simply can't sell things at a financial loss indefinitely . They do it to increase traffic, turn up the marketing machine, get a lot of press and sell other, more profitable items.

Hot deal! $199 Xbox at Walmart with $100...

Filed under: Shopping , Technology , Bargain Babe Walmart is selling the Xbox 360 Arcade console for $199 this Saturday, Nov. 7, 2009, but the package includes a $100 gift card -- shazam! "If you were thinking about purchasing an Xbox 360 this holiday season, this is the absolute best deal we've ever seen on the Xbox 360," BFAds.net reports. Only problem is you'll have to wait for hours in line. Each store is only guaranteed to have 10 Xbox's at this price. It's almost as if Walmart is trying to create a pre-Black Friday hype. (That's Internet sarcasm for ya.) The sales includes six other items , like an 15.6″ HP Laptop for $298, a Panasonic plasma HDTV for $788, a Sony Blu-Ray disc player for $148, a Magnavox DVD player with 1080p upconverter for $29, and a 42" Sharp LCD HDTV for $498. Quantities are limited. (Walmart definitely wants you to remember that part.)

Eat well on $50 a week: Challenge, or no duh?

Filed under: Budgets , Food , Kids and Money , Simplification The headlines for various projects and challenges to eat on a small food budget always slurp me in with their titillation, the gauntlet-throwing, and immediately I ask myself: could I do it? The answer always disappoints, because I'm either doing it already or find the challenge so impossible it's meaningless.

Personal bankruptcies on the rise

Filed under: Bankruptcy Some new numbers have come out that serve as a reminder that the country is in a recession, regardless of what economists say . Last month, personal bankruptcies increased by 9 percent,according to the American Bankruptcy Institute . That translates into 135,914 people who last month decided that their lives would be better off post-bankruptcy, than continuing to slog on and sink into a morass of financial despair. Hopefully, the fresh start will help, though you can just imagine that plenty of those people are still unemployed, and while now debt-free, or relatively debt free, aren't yet bringing in a serious income to fund their personal recoveries.Continue reading Personal bankruptcies on the rise Personal bankruptcies on the rise originally appeared on WalletPop Blog on Fri, 06 Nov 2009 16:00:00 EST.

Recession tales: Entrepreneurs shoot up...

Filed under: Entrepreneurship , Recession , Recession Diaries , Special Reports All your life you wanted to do something outlandish for a living. But that cushy corporate gig and the frills attached to it stopped you from turning your passion into a profession. Enter recession, pink slips and voila your ticket to be your own boss. Unemployed folks are taking the leap of faith and investing their time, energy and resources into entrepreneurial ventures. Yes, believe it or not, new entrepreneurs are on the upswing in this downward spiraling economy. While some took that layoff as an excuse, many are jump starting new ventures out of necessity. Last year, the hemorrhaging economy cost 2.6 -million jobs, the highest tally in more than six decades. The bloodletting hasn't stopped yet. But laid off employees are moving on. They are providing that silver lining to an otherwise gloomy environment.
