How the Post Office Saved Me an Additional 10%!

Two days ago, I wrote about how I saved 8% on home improvement by buying discounted gift cards from Plastic Jungle. After a little poking around the web, I found out that I could save another 10% at Lowe’s by going to the Post Office and asking for a “change of address kit.”
I tried it out and it worked just fine. I was in and out of the PO in less than two minutes with a coupon for 10% off my next purchase at Lowe’s. I read that some of the Post Office kits have Home Depot coupons and some have Lowe’s coupons. I haven’t tried it, but some have said that the stores will honor their competitor’s coupons.
Overall, I saved a whopping 18% on the stuff I needed in addition to the floors I picked up from a different store. So, stop by the Post Office and ask for a “change of address kit.” on your way to Lowe’s and save money. Remember, a penny saved is worth more than a penny earned.
