Saving tips

Here are some great tips that you could ever get on saving during this hard time crisis in the economy. Follow these instructions and see your life change for the better.

I like to call this " Considering the Perks"Heres what i mean.

P; consider POSTPONING expenses that you don't need at the moment which can go on hold for now. Example; that flat screen tv, or that dress or whateveris really not that important but you just feel like you gotta have it, knowing that you don't really need it and can do without for now.

E; consider ELIMINATING the expenses that you can do without. Example; There are some expenses that you need to cut out of your budget . The habbit of spending let's say and average of $3.00-$4.00 every morning at starbucks because you just gotta have coffee, i know some of you probably say ohh its nothing it's just $3.00 and i need my coffee or else i can't function during the day. But to me you can buy a large can of coffee at the dollar store and make coffee for a whole month and save rather than waste it on starbucks, that's an average of $800.00 a year you could save. you do the math.

R; Consider REPLACING the expenses that you normaly do. Example; If you are one of the type of people who loves to go out to eat every day, why not do some groceries and enjoy some quality time around the table with your family? Rather than go out to eat every night, and also you could just pack a lunch bag to work, rather than go out witht everyone else to dine, or you could even go just ask the waiter to warm up the lunch that you brought with you and eat with the rest of the co-workers.

K; Consider the expenses you have to KEEP. Example Your major expenses like, rent/mortgage, health/car insurance , groinceries, utillities/gas. These are the expenses you want to consider because you need those things to maintain a home. Don't gospending your bills money and thinking well i will get the money back somehow, what if you don't . My parents always said, "An ounce of Prevention is better than a Pound of Cure". I trust and believe in that and plus it's less stress, when you go to sleep at night, you don't have to worry about, where am i going to get the money to replace what i spent at the movies or buying these Shoes or whatever.

S; Consider SAVING; example, It's better to take the change from what you just spent and put it in a piggy bank, than spending it on candy, or the icecream truck or whatever. It may not sound like much but if you do this for one month straight without touching your change i guarantee you'll want to keep doing it every month. Also theres a method that i live by, When you I get my check/direct deposit, I pay GOD first, then i pay Myseld, then i pay everyone else. And that method has not failed me yet.

So these are just my way of helping some good money saving tips to anyone who is experiencing trials through this crisis. Try it and see how your life will make a positive change for the better.
