If you have the free FidoAlert or TabbyAlert tag and belong to the FidoAlert or TabbyAlert network and your pet goes missing, all you have to do is send out a FidoAlert or TabbyAlert text/email that’ll notify all registered users about your missing pet. When your pet is found, you’ll get a text with the name and phone number of who found your pet. To get your FidoAlert tag for free, fill out the request form at FidoAlert.com and join the FidoAlert network. To get a free TabbyAlert ID tag for your feline friends, fill out the request form at TabbyAlert.com and join the TabbyAlert network.

30. Firewood

Don’t ever shell out money for firewood for your wood-burning fireplace or before your next camping trip. You can always find free firewood in your area. Check your local Craigslist “free” section, or search Facebook Marketplace for “firewood.” I just checked, and there are four Craigslist listings for firewood in my area alone!
