Have you ever purchased business equipment youonly needed for a small period of time? You couldhave just borrowed the equipment from someone else or rented the equipment from a "rent-all" store.

6. Online/Offline Auctions
You can find lower prices on business supplies andequipment at online and offline auctions. I'm notsaying all the time, but before you go pay retail forthese items try bidding on them first.
