I have a few....

You can braid binder twine for cross ties...
Which is GREAT by the way because it breaks eaisly if your horse ever freaks out on crossties!
You can use baby powder for the white spots on your horse which is great if you don't want to spend a lot of money for professional stuff....
Jugs for horse toys.
Thats all I can remember for now but I'am sure there is tons more!! Good luck!

Money Saving Tips

*You could also braid bailing twine to make lead ropes. The only thing you have to buy is the clip itself.

*You could use normal conditioner in your horses mane/tail to get it detangled.

*To make your horse more shiny, you could just rub him down after his groom, with an old cloth.
