MoneyWalk 235: Bargain Shopping Can Help You

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

You can save money by bargain shopping for homes, cars, computers, clothes, and other merchandise. This consists of searching various outlets until you find the items you want at a price that's well below what others normally pay.

If you have a respecter of persons mindset that only allows you to purchase items in upscale stores with high prices, you’ll inevitably spend more money than you should for merchandise you want and you’ll probably go into debt. This will keep you from building the level of wealth that God intends for you and thus will affect your ability to give abundantly to support gospel ministry and establish the good stewardship pattern that will open the windows of Heaven and have abundant blessing continually poured out on you.

Your mind must be renewed by Christ to realize that there is quality, lower priced merchandise that can meet your needs and desires. You simply have to look for it. A thorough search (asking friends, searching websites, looking at merchandise at a variety of stores) will often reveal that like goods (sometimes with different brand names and lower prices) are offered at different stores.

You may find that different stores are selling the goods at different prices. Look in dollar stores and department stores for less expensive merchandise and give those products and services an opportunity to show you whether or not they are just as good. While you may find that some things are not as good as higher priced ones at other stores, you will likely find that many things like household utility items are just as good.

Without proof, don't believe that high priced merchandise is necessarily better in quality without testing it against lower price goods of the same kind. Also, don’t waste money over brand name loyalty without the proof of better quality and affordability within your financial situation. Ultimately, your wise, good steward habits will put you in a position where at a certain point in life you are able to purchase a variety of goods without having to fret over the cost or even look for lower cost alternatives. It may still be wise to do so, but you will be in a position where you do not have to and can simply indulge from time to time without searching far and wide to see if the goods are offered at a lower price elsewhere.

Remember, a great result of your good stewardship exhibited by not becoming an unqualified “respecter of brands” and not ruling out that dollar, discount , department stores may have what you can use at lower prices is to put yourself in a position where you have more to give to spread the gospel and more to save and invest throughout the length of your life When the additional disposable income is properly invested, over time you will build immense wealth for your situation that puts you far ahead of most if not all of your peers.

Please pray for this ministry and email any questions. May God bless you richly as you follow His plan!!!
