What to Buy (& Skip) in April to Save Money 2024
Did you know that there are different things on sale each month of the year?
A while back I put together a Month to Month Shopping Guide that lists the best items to buy each month to save money!
Here I am highlighting the best items to buy this month!
What to Buy in April
Easter clearance! Easter falls on March 31st this year, so shop clearance starting April 1st.
It’s Springtime! Look for sales on cleaning supplies and vacuums.
Target Car Seat Trade-In Event April 14 – 27 (Free Recycling & Save 20% on a New One!)
It’s back! Target’s Car Seat Trade-In Event returns April 14 – 27, 2024, where you can recycle used car seats for free, plus get a 20% off coupon for a new one!
All car seats collected through this popular program will be recycled so that each component will see a second life. And what’s super neat is that when you recycle your car seat, you get a 20% coupon for a new car seat, stroller or other baby gear item!
From Sunday, April 14th to Saturday, April 27th, you can head to your local Target store to recycle your old car seats and redeem a coupon on their Target app or Target.com/circle for 20% for one new seat, stroller or select baby gear.
Coupons can be used in store or online and will be redeemable until you use it twice or it expires.
I also recommend that you combine your savings with using your RedCard, which saves you 5% on all purchases (I love mine!).

Pioneer Press Subscription Deals with Free Gift Cards!
I’m excited to share some great deals for the Pioneer Press!
I have subscribed to the Pioneer Press for years. I get the Sunday paper but it includes a daily digital paper that I’m emailed, plus coupons and store ads which I use to save money. So I’m happy to share some deals for Pioneer Press subscriptions!
Here are the deals you can pick from – each includes your choice of gift card from Cub, Coborns, Lunds, Sam’s Club/Walmart, Walgreens, Holiday, or Kwik Trip:
7 Day a Week Subscriptions
7 days a week/EzPay
$12/Month with $15 Gift Card – No Activation Fee
There is a $.15 per delivery “Supply Chain Surcharge” so $1.05/week. This amount will be deducted from the monthly $12 charge so it will shorten the subscription and therefore trigger another $12 charge sooner than one month.

My kids love dinosaurs, which is why our family went to Discover the Dinosaurs at the Minneapolis Convention Center a few years ago. As I shared a while back, it was pricey but fun. The event was in a big space at the Minneapolis Convention Center (same place again this year) and there were a ton of life-like dinosaurs and displays that were both interesting and educational. We all enjoyed it – kids and adults alike – and we spent 2-3 hours there. [Read more…]
