Tip 5 being resourceful

Some of the most useful things I have found for my shows have actually been in the dollar store. Not the tricks but things to compliment the tricks. Like for example I have found great loading balls for my cups and balls tricks there. The first thing i do when I get an idea for some kind of trick or something for my show is I look around the house. You would be amazed at some of the things that are just lying around your house. So next time you have a great idea for a trick remember I check your house and then dollar store before buying the ones actually made for magic.
