Default Re: Ideas on money that should be claimed

Not quite falling under the left behind category...

But pricematching on tech purchases. I find about 25% things I buy at staples or compusa go on sale within the same month of me buying them... You can get the pricematch on the sale item by just watching the circulars, or checking online.

The other thing is real estate tax abatements. We're up to 4,900$ a year in property taxes. Every year our assessed value goes up, and we file for an abatement. You usually get denied, but if you keep after it, you'll eventually get some relief (the assessor just wants to get rid of you). Lopped off a few hundred 2 years ago. Which is a year over year win.
