Creative Ways to SaveMoney This Fall at the Arc Store in Paradise
It’s still summertime up here in Paradise when a little tree shade is very welcome, but the leaves are starting to fall and will soon need raking. This yearly chore heralds in the cooler fall and winter months. Besides yard work it makes you start asking yourself if you’re ready for the change of seasons. So let’s start talking about creative ways to save money here in Paradise, California as fall approaches.
Outdoor Furniture
Patio or deck furniture that’s both comfortable and weather resistant is always nice to have. While it holds up pretty good in the elements, sometimes it still needs to be replaced.
The Arc Store in Paradise usually has a variety of useful and comfortable chairs and loungers to choose from. They sell fast, but there’s usually more to place on the floor. A small table made of non-rusting wood comes in handy and some of them can support an umbrella to help keep things dry.
A creative way to save money on your outdoor furniture needs is to buy second hand and then re-paint or simply varnish over the item. It’ll look new and resist the winter weather months much better. In some cases you’ll be able to find powder coated wrought iron planters and tables which are similar to your porcelain tub, beautiful, easy to clean, and weather proof.
Seasonal Weather Clothing
At the Arc Store in Paradise you’ll find a large selection of clothing and shoes to meet the needs of any season and at affordable prices. Sometimes, you can find the best deals by shopping off-season.
A creative way to save money is to come into the store in September when there’s a large pre-winter jacket sale. This year it’s on September 25 and 26. There will be racks full of name-brand quality parkas, as well as business and dress jackets at the best prices you’ll be able find. Also on hand will be high quality winter boots to keep your toes nice and comfy.
Bedding and Linens
As the cooler weather sneaks up on you, it may be time to throw an extra blanket or comforter on your bed. The Arc Store in Paradise has the one and only Molly Roe. She has the responsibility of sorting and pricing the linen section which includes sheets, pillow cases, comforters, curtain panels and sewing supplies.
You’ll be surprised at not only the selection but the amazingly low prices on everything in her department. She scrutinizes every item to ensure quality, and is the most knowledgeable person in our store with regards to re-purposing items such as valances for aprons, or table runners into quilts.
Other Seasonal Savers
The Town of Paradise occasionally gets snow in the winter – you might doubt it with the latest drought conditions – but it brings to mind the possibility of needing snow chains for your tires. They’re often a forgotten item because they aren’t used every year. If you’ve priced them lately you know they’re expensive, especially since you might only get to use them once or twice and then throw them in your trunk or garage.
It’s good to be prepared and the Arc Store usually has a good supply of chains and the tire size is printed right on the container.
It’s also a smart idea to carry a small emergency backpack in your vehicle containing items such as a flash light, water, first aid kit, and protein bars for sustenance. That way if you get stuck you can be a little more comfortable and confident.
Most of these things can be bought here at the Arc Store at bargain prices to get you ready for the cooler seasons.
