Here's a money saving tip from MSN that features the best way to save on landscaping costs:
The best way to save money in landscaping is to do as much work as possible yourself. A 3-gallon bush may cost $20, but the price skyrockets to $30 or $40 when it's planted by a landscaping professional. A $3-to-$4 perennial will cost about $12 installed.
Good tip. In fact, you can expand this tip into saving money in other areas as well. For instance, if you have a plumbing, electrical, or some other contract job where you can do part of the work yourself, you can save a good amount of money. For a real life example of this, check out The Best Deal I Ever Got, Part 12.
Indeed! If you want to build up an office center you should do it by yourself.
