In my area the county is trimming trees and branches that are died or in the way of power lines.. I talk to them and they are more then happy to let me take what I want.. I get free mulch to add to my garden and compost also free beanches and sometimes already cut trees for you y wood stove. Might be little work but it is free..this year I got lucky they did alot of work half mile from my home.
I layer up to go outside to do chores. When I come in, it feels hot and layers come off. I keep the thermostat set usually at 68.
That would save a lot of money!Bah! I want to hibernate until April.

@tortoise, yes deals are aplenty. I am seeing mentions that canning supplies are dropping slightly in price locally. *eye twitch* is back.
I have to be fery fery careful when going to feed store..maybe put on some blinders🤪..or I end up with extra containers, clothing and other "necessities"..
Frugully speaking.(.is that even a word?) After leaves fall and others bag them..I drive around and snatch them up...maple leaves esp. make great poultry bedding..saves on purchasing.
Oakleaves go around blueberries for they are acidic and any left over get dumped on the garden beds...especially the asparagus and rootbeds...
I either take them back their bags..in which case they fill them again and may even deliver to me...or I use the large paper bags...for any number of things
