The 'lawn tonic' idea has been written about in books and used in Colorado, where they're going through a water shortage like we are here in southern Nevada.

"When you don't have a lot of water and we're on watering restrictions, this is another way to get the nutrients to your lawn and keep it growing."

The secret formula is actually just a mix of common household ingredients. All mixed into a 10-gallon hose-end sprayer. Each ingredient does something different, it feeds the lawn, penetrates the roots and promotes growth, and even kills bugs and grubs.

The next one I used is one ALL of us have had to deal with (ewwww)!

What started as a mistake has turned into the biggest cockroach massacre Las Vegas has ever seen. Since we told you about the homemade bug trap and showed you how well it works with our "bug-cam", the calls and emails have been pouring in.

And thanks to the Saving You Money Team, people are winning the war against the roaches all over town.

"This is nothing but coffee grounds and a little bit of water, that's all that's in there, that's what Jim Snyder said to do, so this is a fantastic idea. I'm not a bug collector, but I'm happy to have them here rather than coming through my door into the house.

They have tips on how to take your mortgage payments from a 15-30 yr loan and have your house paid off in 5 years! How to save gas like UPS drivers :) Hint: making only right hand turns!
