These expert strategies will help you get the most bang for your buck from dawn till dusk.
7:00 A.M. Fill up the tank.
The smartest time to buy gas is in the morning, when temps are cooler. As gas warms up, it becomes less dense, which means you get a little less fuel per gallon. The price may differ only a bit, but every penny saved counts — and can keep you on the road longer.
8:00 A.M. Pick up prime rib.
The shelf life of most refrigerated meats is only five days, so when stores get in a big shipment (or steaks aren’t selling as fast as they’d hoped), butchers and deli managers often offer discounts of up to 40%. Duck in early, though: Deals likely won’t last through the evening.
10:00 A.M. Catch a movie in the morning.
For many people, seeing the latest blockbuster before noon may not be doable until the weekend, but the first film of the day is cheaper at some theaters than a regular matinee — and sometimes that goes for all showings before noon. If you’re bringing the kids along, you still might shell out some cash on snacks, but the overall payoff could be a few dollars saved and a wide-open afternoon.
