Buying used instead of new can save you a lot of money. Let someone else take the depreciation hit. Kiplinger recently came out with 12 Things to Buy Used. These are items you should consider buying used because you often can find them in good or almost-new condition at a fraction of the price you would pay by buying them new. Here's Kiplinger's list:
- Furniture
- Designer jeans
- Tablets
- Swing sets
- Books and college textbooks
- Kids' Bicycles
- Video games
- Lawn equipment
- Power tools
- Baby gear
- Baby, toddler and kid clothing
- Exercise equipment
