Paying for things is out, using the library is in. Also, have you heard about tool libraries? Depending on where you live, you might be able to borrow tools instead of buying them.

Real BIB hours
Is there a list of Libraries I can register online with if I don’t necessarily live near them? Would like to expand my reach in libby.
A note about the DVD and CD collections at your local library:
Rip them. While it is perfectly legal to rip media, you have taken from the library or that you have purchased, there is one technical snag: bypassing the DVD encryption is technically a civil offense. But there’s also no way for anyone to ever prove that you did that unless you create a video of you doing it and send it into the FBI.
So make sure to use that library card to its fullest potential!
If bypassing encryption is illegal just download it and cut out the middle man.
Got a lot of mileage out of this in high school when mp3 players had just kicked off.
Good advice!
(Sorry, your tips and suggestions ARE all good, just had to appease my joke Tourette’s 😁)
Yeah seriously check what else your library has to offer. My library loaned me a brand new pair of Black Diamond trekking poles and I liked them so much that I bought by own pair.
