Ways to Save While You Continue Your Job Search

There’s no question that the current job market is challenging for even the most qualified college grads presently seeking employment. So much for stating the obvious! This is truly a market that requires a creative, “think outside of the box” mentality - - albeit with perseverance, and a lot of luck. But don’t despair; resources abound with tips to make this time in your lives a bit more palatable. The suggestions in this article, 10 Thrifty Tips for Hip Grads, may not be new to you, but it’s always helpful to be re-reminded in print. This article appeared on the blog Grad to Great.

While you continue your job search, here are a couple more freebies for the taking:

It’s Friday, and time to sign up and receive free chocolate from Mars Real Chocolate Relief Act. Mars has generously given away 250,000 coupons for free chocolate each Friday since May. That’s a lot of chocolate! Who can say no to M&M’s, Snickers and other favorites?

If you’re based in New England, stop by a participating McDonald’s for a free Newman’s Own Organics Coffee through the end of September. Don’t you just love free coffee? Apparently Tuesday the 29th is National Coffee Day. I’m not yet sure what that means, but it sounds better than yesterday’s National Punctuation Day! Who knew? There’s a “day” for everything, I guess.

Reminder: Tomorrow is Museum Day, sponsored by Smithsonian Magazine. Take a break from your job search and check out all the free events at museums around the country. It'll do your spirits a world of good, and not break your budget!
