Aldi Has a Matching Rug and Runner 'Set' for Dirt Cheap

Rugs can be surprisingly expensive, but shopping Aldi Finds can save you money and help you stretch your budget while still getting your home all cozy for the upcoming winter. See the matching rug and runner sets from Aldi that will be available starting Wednesday, Sept. 25.

Windows are the number one source of heat loss that can drive up winter heating bills. Keeping your home warm and toasty during the colder seasons can be much cheaper for those with thick drapes that provide an extra layer of insulation from the cold glass.

Pro-tip: Pick up a window insulation kit to winterize your windows to further prevent heat loss.

Money tips that can work for everyone

No matter what your bank account balance is, there's always an opportunity to optimize and improve your finances. Here's a quick checklist of things you can look at today.

Focus on paying off your debt. Debt can hold you back from making progress with your overall financial well-being. Aside from cutting expenses, there are tools that can help you pay off debt faster like balance transfer credit cards and debt counseling.

Earning extra income can give you breathing room. If finances are tight, earning some extra money to supplement your income can make a huge difference. A new job is one option to consider, but if you're not ready to make a big change or already retired, a part-time side job could be a better choice.

Cut your expenses. It sounds painful and so not fun, but it doesn't have to be. Take a look at your biggest expenses because that's where you'll probably find the biggest savings. For example, auto insurance rates have been soaring so shopping around for a new insurance company can be the fastest way to cut your bill. Also, look for ways to cut your grocery bill (despite rising inflation).
