Sierra Blogging Post Archives

At Sierra Trading Post, we’re all about getting a great deal. We prefer our purchases to be 35-70% off.

But we don’t just save on outdoor gear, apparel and footwear. We also like to save in other areas. If you’re reading this, you probably do, too. That’s why we’re introducing a new series of savings tip posts called How to Save.

Because we’d all like to save money on our water bills, (and do the planet a favor) we’ve got two great tips this week on How To Save Water:

1. Spread a layer of organic mulch around plants and flowers in your garden and landscaping. Mulch retains moisture, saves water and keeps plants happy.

2. Collect water you use to wash fruits and vegetables and use it again - to water houseplants or your garden.

Know any other great ways to save water? Leave a comment below (click Read More and scroll down for comments section) with additional savings tips on How To Save Water. We’ll pick one save-savvy winner from the comments section on each savings post to win a $50 gift card. (Feel free to also send me an email with new topic suggestions.)

UPDATE: We've chosen a winner for the How to Save: Water comment contest. Congratulations, Ian Curtis! See Ian's great tip from July 20th below...
