Tis’ the season to be on a budget!
It’s the holidays and some of us are low on cash after the Black Friday madness, white elephant gift exchanges and presents bought for our friends and family. Every time I hit the mall, I can hear my conscience say, “Put that DVD down, you should be shopping for others, not for you!” Well Colligiettes, there is a solution to that problem and it’s a nifty website called Stuff Pal .
StuffPal is a free online media sharing application that allows people to catalog and show-off their collection of DVDs, books and videogames to their Facebook friends who are also on StuffPal. Think of it like a library but filled with your friends’ collections of media.
Users can request to borrow items their friends have cataloged. This lending-borrowing system allows us to go green by reducing our personal consumption. In the long-run it saves the environment because it reduces the demand for resources, most of which will eventually end up as waste in a landfill.
Just imagine the amount of money you can save by borrowing items from your friends instead of purchasing more and more new items, especially when the new quarter rolls around and it’s time to buy textbooks.
But don’t take our word for it, check it out for yourself! Visit StuffPal.com and login using their built-in Facebook login feature. Once you’ve signed-up for free just type in the DVDs, books, videogames you own and are willing to lend to your friends, then invite your Facebook friends to use StuffPal and begin borrowing and lending.
Let us know in the comments section if you think StuffPal will help
you out financially and help the environment!
