TODAY'S THRIFTY TIP:

Use clear caulk around windows to stop drafts. This caulk is placed around the window in the fall and removed in the spring when the weather warms up. It is especially designed to easily be removed by peeling it off.


BONUS TIP:

Do you have a fireplace? Most people don't realize that modern fireplaces with deeper fire boxes, are not effective heat sources and the reality is, they suck air from your home. You actually LOSE heat when you run your fire place unless you have fireplace doors that you keep closed (basically going just for the ambience) or you can close off that room and minimize the flue draft. If you really want your fireplace to work for you, consider fireplace inserts, inset stoves and that sort of thing.
