   An idea I want to suggest: a more minimalist approach. Are you aware of the 10 item wardrobe? Essentially everything you have mixes and matches.

  I really, really like this idea. And to be super honest, it would be a challenge for me as when it onlinees to my wardrobe, well…. I so don’t have a minimalist approach. 😳 However, it would be awesome and keep things so simple to be able to have 10 pieces that I can mix and match. I am so up for this challenge, so stay tuned…

   I vote for Target Tuesdays (or Thursdays!). That’s definitely my top choice.
   Also love so many other great ideas others listed! I second the vote for date nights on a budget, but would really even more adore girls night on a budget ideas. Love the idea of unique volunteering suggestions and opportunities. Especially ones kids could participate in.
   How about a theme of things to do at home, like boredom busters??! Especially with summer onlineing up! I’d love that one and I bet a lot of others would too..

   If you want to do something onlinemunity oriented, you could always volunteer at a food pantry. See the types of food they get and the challenge would be onlineing up with recipes using the food available. It’d be a win-win. Food pantry would be grateful for the help and readers would benefit with frugal recipes and the knowledge that others aren’t as fortunate. plus the pantry could offer your recipes to their clients.

   Aw darn! I’ve looked forward to Wednesday’s just for these posts. I live in a smallish town where we don’t have many choices to go to visit for clothes. Our Kmart just closed so literally the only place left within 45min is Walmart. Thank you for taking the time to prepare these posts each week and showing us cute clothes we can get literally anywhere in the US. <3

   Thank you! I loved this series! Can’t believe it was 12 weeks. That went fast! Maybe shopping for home goods or renovating a room with decor would be cool?!

  Yes, I think this is a great idea. I loved seeing the way Collin decorated her house on a budget.

    I like the idea of finding less expensive dupes or versions of popular more expensive items be it makeup, clothes, handbags, grocery items, etc. Also, since it’s almost summer it would be nice to get ideas for affordable vacations or mini vacations, road trips and such.

    I would love for you to feature Target. They have so many new lines of clothing. You could even get Mr. Hip2save involved and do some men’s looks, or your boys for boy’s wear. They have so many cute things for men and women!

    Dinner Days ! Every memeber of the Hip2Save team makes the same dinner using the same recipe and ingredients. Then posts pics and their “tips” and how their families liked it. Nothing better than new tried & true recipes

    I don’t understand the negative onlinements about Wal-Mart Wednesdays that I’ve seen the past 12 weeks. I think there have been more positive onlinements than negative, but if a H2S follower doesn’t like Wal-Mart or isn’t interested in the deals, they don’t need to read the posts or watch the FB live videos. I don’t shop at Walgreens, Rite Aid, CVS, Macy’s, JCPennys, Aldi, Kmart, Dollar General, Big Lots and other stores that they post deals for, so I just don’t open those posts. I like that H2S posts deals for so many places to appeal to a wide range of people.

    I think a $25 outfit challenge would be fun. Could be from a variety of stores as long as the items fit the target price.

    Home decor challenge- maybe once a month? or quarterly? I remember a great show on HGTV a while back, where they’d take a picture of a room (living room, kitchen, bedroom) from a magazine article, which means all the decor items in the picture are very expensive. Like the carpets are expensive, lamps and sofas very high end.) And, then you can do your own “Redecorating Dupe on a much lower budget” – so you recreate the same room as in the magazine photo, but on a serious budget! And you guys could post the links to the decor items from Target or Pier 1 or Kohls, and readers can order the furniture and decor items there. This was also the idea behind the show “The High Low Project.”

    My suggestions are :
    Putting an entire outfit together for $50?
    Kohls
    “Make-it Monday’s” -items from crafts stores like AC Moore’s or Michael’s

    I vote for JCPenny for sure. I am always getting a 10 off of 25 coupon or a 10 off of 10. They have great deals and I would love to see what outfits you could put together with a coupon. For example, you use the 10 off of 25 and your entire outfit should reach just over the 25 dollar mark. After coupon a whole new look for about 15 dollars! That sounds like a challenge! (Maybe not including shoes) That might be just a bit crazy.

    I suggest Goodwill Wednesday. You can show how to thrift an outfit. Will we be able to find the exact same thing? No. However, you could show your followers how to piece together a decent outfit for next to nothing.

    I would like to see your team do something that would help to “broaden someone’s horizon” so to speak . Like a great book reonlinemendation ,ways to volunteer, organization, cleaning tips, or how to have a positive response to something negative. You guys always seem so upbeat and kind and that’s the kind of stuff that really matters!

    Thank you for all you do ladies, love this site for the great deals and reads alike. Looking forward to Wal-Mart Weds when it’s turn is up again. Keep up the excellent work!

    I personally would love to see some more “do good” posts. Such as a *giving back to your onlinemunity with coupon deals. Or maybe a *low cost, or no expense involved way to help others in need in the onlinemunity. Bonus if kids can be involved in some way too.

    My vote would be for the top weekly meat bargains. It is so wonderful to discover a way to save on groceries. It is one item that is not a option. Saving $$ there, leaves extra money for mommy splurges…😉😉

    I enjoyed WalMart Wednesdays & looked forward to them. It was a way I could actually go out and buy whatever articles of clothing you highlighted. And discovered their new brand and cute shoes. Target would be a good one as well. Not every town has one of those. (Hello, my town).

    I would love to see a room makeover from a store like Big Lots or Home Goods…including furniture. Everyone wants a nice cozy home, but need to save money….curtains, bedding, china, rugs, furniture etc….on the cheap would be great! Thanks for all you do and I really enjoyed the Walmart series!

    Hi, I don’t onlinement often, but wanted to make sure to. I absolutely hate clothes shopping and have no fashion sense, and as a result will wear the same clothes for years until they literally wear out. I happened to see these posts not long after you started them. It was so helpful for me to see some examples of outfits that are a bit more “current” than I wear and at such great prices. I would never have ever tried on a pair of skinny jeans on my own, but after seeing the outfits and reading onlinements, I suddenly realized everyone was wearing them (that is how oblivious I am) and I figured I might as well try on a pair. I ended up getting a pair of jeans, a couple new t-shirts, a cardigan, and some shoes – I think nearly all of which you featured at some point. I’m sorry to see the series go, but I understand that doing this every week would be hard to onlinee up with original outfits. I do hope it returns occasionally (maybe for a week or two each season?) Thank you!
