10 Easy Ways to Save Money!
| 1. | 1. Stop eating out! Reduce your monthly restaurant budget to one or two occasions a month. Instead, try re-creating your favorite restaurant recipes at home. |
| 2. | 2. DIY! Instead of paying for expensive home improvements, furniture, etc, try doing-it-yourself. Read up on reupholstery or buy a slip cover to give your home a new look. This reminds me: |
| 3. | 3. Organize a SWAP meet. Try to organize a swap with your neighbors. Put out any unwanted furniture pieces or decor, household items, etc. Then grab your bag and go shopping, for free! |
| 4. | 4. Walk, don't drive. If at all possible, try to walk to places as opposed to driving. Walking to the nearby store allows you not only to save money on gas, but also gets in some healthy exercise and vitamin D! |
| 5. | 5. Coupons, Coupons, Coupons! Couponing can seem like a daunting task to the new comer, but it's not that hard. There are plenty of resources on the internet to teach the newcomer how to get and use coupons to your advantage. They can save you several dollars, which is very rewarding to both your pocket and your mind. |
| 6. | 6. Pamper at home. Manicures, Pedicures, and Massages can be done at home. Create your own sudsy foot bath and spend a relaxing 30 mins at home pampering your fingers and toes. Ask a significant other to give you a backrub, and invest in some healthy relationship time. |
| 7. | 7. Cut back on services. Have a home phone you don't really use? A Cable/Dish package that just offers too many channels that you don't end up watching? Cut the services and save the cash. If it's TV you're worried about, you can catch many of your favorite cable TV shows online. |
| 8. | 8. Cut back on energy consumption. Leave the lights off. Turn off the A/C when it's cooler outside, and take cooler showers! Cutting your energy consumption is a little way to save big. |
| 9. | 9. Sign up for e-newsletters for the things you like. Love a particular restaurant? Or have a favorite brand of laundry detergent? Signing up for e-newsletters is an easy way to get the scoop on upcoming sales, promotions, and a resource for getting coupons. If you don't like SPAM, set up a free email account with a service like google or yahoo to recieve these messages and check occasionally. |
| 10. | 10. Stock up during sales. Collect non-perishables, household cleaners/items, and things of that nature when they're cheap. Spending a little extra can oftentimes save you big in the long run. |
