How to Have a Great BBQ For Less Money

BBQ For Less MoneyThe BBQ party season is now here, and with a lot of holidays coming up over the summer like Memorial Day and the Fourth of July, people are going to be grilling more and celebrating more with their family and friends. Though money is sometimes tight, that does not mean that the parties and fun should stop, and here are some ways to have a great BBQ without spending a fortune.

#1. Tell everyone invited that it’s a pot luck.

When it comes to a great party, why should the host and hostess have all the fun of making food? By letting everyone know they have to bring at least one dish, there will be a variety of different foods at the BBQ, which is going to make it a really great party with various exciting dishes.

#2. Suggest what people can bring to help with the party.

Yes potlucks are a lot of fun, but the last thing you want is for everyone to bring salad or pasta, because then you will end up with 25 bowls of the same dish. While it is a great idea to tell everyone to bring something, the best way to handle this is to ask different people for different things like pasta, potato dishes, bread, and dessert. Also, asking people to bring something that will go well with the main dish is also another simple way to avoid dozens of the same food.

#3. Be aware of allergies and medical conditions that limit the diet.

Before any further planning is made, it is a good idea to check with people to see if anyone is allergic to anything specific or have a medical condition that limits what they can eat.

#4. Use BBQ skewers to reduce the cost of buying meat.

In addition to things like hot dog, hamburger, sausage, and chicken, people may be expecting something like steak at the BBQ. However, buying enough steaks to cover a couple dozen people can be hugely expensive. One creative way to cut back on the meat you need is to buy a big pack of steaks, but cut them up and use skewers. With these skewers, steak can be mixed with things like pieces of chicken and vegetables.

#5. Simple appetizers can help fill up guests.

People go to a BBQ party hungry expecting to eat right away, and while it does take time to grill things, one way to help keep the guests happy is to have appetizers that will temporarily fill up guests while they wait for the food to finish cooking on the grill. Appetizers can also be something that the guests bring too, which can make it easier on people who are also having issues with their money. Even simple appetizers like crackers topped with seafood salad can be easy to make, and the protein in the crab and shrimp will help fill people up. By the time the grilled food is ready, people will not be as starving as they were and eat more sensibly.

5 Tips For Getting an HD TV For A Low Price

HDTV ShoppingTechnology is always changing, and with it comes better televisions that give people a life-like picture. However, new televisions can mean a couple of thousand dollars that people do not always have, but there are tips that people can try that will save them money, and also get them a newer television.

#1. Online sales are a great way to save.

When the newest kind of television comes, online retailers will have just as many new televisions as stores, and that will mean that they are now going to slash the prices of the older televisions just to get rid of them.

#2. Check into the display models.

Every electronics store has televisions out on the floor that people can look at, then pick up the remote, and play with. After a while, these display models are switched out, and people can usually buy the display model for a pretty cheap price. Though they may only come with the remote, the display models are usually in pretty good shape, and should last for many years.

#3. Bargain websites offer electronics for less.

Websites like Amazon are considered bargain websites, and can offer both brand new items, and even used items for a low price. Amazon is not the only bargain website on the Internet, there are others too that offer people the chance to buy a great television for some amazingly low prices.

#4. Pawn shops have televisions in good condition.

People who are low on cash, and payday is not for another week or so, then the only way for getting money in a hurry is to start selling things, and their television is always the first thing taken to the nearest pawn shop. In order to sell their electronics, they have to be in good shape, and most importantly, they have to work. People can find a fairly new television that works at a pawn shop for a fraction of the price you’d pay at a major retail outlet.

#5. Black Friday means incredible deals on electronics especially televisions.

Every fourth week of November is Thanksgiving, and the day after it is Black Friday, which everyone knows is the biggest shopping day of the year because Christmas is only a few short weeks away. On this one special day, prices on everything are low, and people can get great Christmas gifts for very little money.

However, the past few years have seen a big change in how Black Friday works, and now, the same deals offered at stores are now being offered on their websites as well. Now people can get the same bargains on the televisions they want while staying at home, and some companies even jump the gun, and may not only offer deals that Friday, but that whole weekend as well. Some retailers even lure customers to them by having special deals on Thanksgiving or even the week leading up to the very special holiday. The biggest deals that Black Friday offers are on televisions, and people can get a good sized television that they have always wanted, but for at least half of the price.
