Budgeting is one of the financial tips that financial experts advise
to their clients in ensuring that they will not run out of money and
debts can be avoided as much as possible. One of the things that really
ruin financial status is the natural impulse of man in buying unwanted
and unnecessary things, especially if you are strolling in the mall and
even if you are in grocery stores. In fact, there are useful and quality
items which have been used by others, which are being sold in thrift
stores and found in some garage sales. Here are the second hand stuffs
that you should buy the next time you go for a hunt. So below are the 10
things that you should buy only used
10. Recordings
To all grannies, grandpas and even your parents, listening to music,
which had been recorded in vinyl discs during their time, is one of the
things that they really missed and cherished. You could hardly find
those recordings these days due to accessibility of downloading the
latest music online. They are indeed good buys for them.
9. Past Movies
You could not buy video tapes anymore because there are huge demands
of DVDs these days. CDs are being outdated aside from the downloading
opportunity that youngsters can get online.
8. Musical Instruments
Musical equipment are indeed pricy, but you can still find decent
selections of microphones, recording instruments, pianos, organs, and
even guitars, which are tagged in a very affordable price. You don’t
need new ones if the quality and performance are still at par.
7. Sports Equipment
Being physically fit requires time and money, aside from the effort
that you have to exert and sacrifice just to gain the desired weight and
shape. Hence, you don’t need to be enrolled in any expensive gym just
to use their state-of-the-art sports equipment because you can still
have the same value with second-hand choices of gym tools.
6. Quality Designer Clothes
Women loves to shop and in fact, if you know how to make proper mix
and pair of clothes even if they are already used, it would still look
as brand new, just like the ones that can be seen on display in some of
the department stores. Remember, you need to find quality ones and not
items that you have to alter, not unless you are going to experiment out
of those old pieces.
5. Books
These are generally outdated old materials that cannot be out listed
on this list. They are good options for those who are still studying,
especially those who are taking their masters and post degree courses.
Knowledge is still current, aside from computer programming and other
methodologies for some courses these days.
4. Computers/Laptops
Computers and Laptops are not just wants these days but they are
considered to be needs. In fact, they are not just intended for
employees but even for students. You don’t need the latest ones if your
purpose will be served greatly.
3. Mobile Phones
Communication is an integral part of human daily activities. This is
the reason why there are growing competition and demands when it comes
to cheap mobile phones. Hence, if you want to buy decent and high-end
ones, you don’t have to buy new phones. You can purchase second-hand
gadgets from those users who have bought the latest mobile phones.
2. Furniture
This is not just for the purpose of saving, but there is a high
quality of old furniture, which is durable where it could last a
century.
1. Car
If you can’t afford to buy a new car, you don’t have to worry,
especially if your financial situation cannot meet the amortization
plans of some of the car companies. Just shop around for old vehicles
and then it’s up to you if you want to make full-bodied custom cars
later. This would in turn be a wise investment because you can sell it
later at a fair price if you would plan to buy a new car in the future.
You would really save thousands of bucks. In reality, it is better than
buying a new car since its value and market price are depreciating after
it has been released and used for a few months or even just weeks.
