Sometimes it makes more sense to buy certain funeral items from someone other than the funeral home handling your service. These other suppliers usually offer more reasonable prices than the typical funeral home.
Make an effort to locate other sources that sell funeral merchandise and see what they charge for the items you’re thinking about buying. Even if you don’t buy from someone else, just knowing that less-expensive options exist can often get your funeral home to give you a big discount to remain competitive.
Savvy families do this all the time and end up saving hundreds – and sometimes thousands – of dollars on caskets, urns, and headstones.
I give my clients a simple chart that shows them where to find various merchants that may be worth considering. I also give them a handy “grade sheet” that compares each of the popular Internet suppliers of funeral merchandise. This grade sheet makes it easy to locate lower-priced merchants and determine how the competition stacks up in terms of prices, selection, and quality.
When you use this information you’ll be able to make sure you get a GREAT deal on everything you are forced to buy.
You get both the list of recommended merchants and the handy grade sheet for free as part of the Funeral Saver’s Kit.
