Tips on how to save money
:
Last but not least, we have to have fun.. Every paycheque, we give each other an X amount of dollars that’s ours to do whatever. I mean, he’s a golfer, I gotta keep him happy. I’m finding we’re sticking to our budget better this way. Once we run out of that, it’s over.. wait till payday…
Learn how to enjoy life and nature rather than possessions. Being happy in life is far better than buying item after item. Having an inner peace is better than having a house filled with “things”. This does not mean that you can’t enjoy some of the finer things in life, it just means learning how to be happy with yourself and not “things”.
Look for classic pieces of clothes and often in black, or white that are easy to mix and match and that won’t go out of style. I’ve stopped doing the value village things there, as I found I tended to not wear many of the “deals” I was picking up. They say most people only wear ten percent of their wardrobe so why bother to buy 90 percent you won’t wear?

Best way to save money
:
Try to get the best bang for the buck with most things, but paint colours are one of the best tricks. Cultivate good taste and be creative and you will never be bored, and be able to live in high style on a very small budget. One of my friends used to shop yard sales every weekend and her apartment was so beautiful and unique. Her rule was to never pay more than five dollars for anything. For some this could backfire. It’s not a deal if you buy things you don’t want, need or really love. One lady I knew used to collect multiples of things that were never used.
Try to get things than will pay for themselves. Right now I’m thinking an electric fireplace will not only be cosy but balance the heat in the house. We tend to spend the most time in the coolest room. I picked up a high end dishwasher that works perfectly at less than half price in a moving sale… they say you could spend four years of your life hand washing dishes… that’s four years that I could put to much more productive use, and work on my at home business. Just heard the stat that a fully loaded dishwasher is more cost effective than hand washing and I think I believe it. I try to run it only every second or third day, and it keeps clutter down in the meantime. It’s a more zen space to be productive in.

When shopping you’re always excited about the great deal you got or how much you saved … but did you ever actually SAVE that money ?
Best way to save money
:
Get rid of your bar fridge. It really is a power hog and oftentimes is mostly empty anyways. If you have a party get some ice chests/ coolers and ice. Use you coldroom in the winter (works great too).
Get rid of your gas guzzler! I had a van prior to the price of gas hitting the $100 barrel mark and switched to a small sub-compact car (wagon) and I have no regrets.You may fill up with the same frequency but I would rather fill my tank with $45 than $65-85 or more for many large vans and trucks.
Good money management is an acquired skill. As you go forward with the process of saving monay, you need to have a positive attitude which is often what will keep you and your family headed in the right direction. If you think you can’t save, then you probably won’t. Be determined and stay positive about saving. As you see your savings mount up, this will become easier and easier.

Tips on how to save money
:
You can save a fortune on groceries! Watch the adds and only go to 1 or 2 different stores when they are on the way somewhere else. No extra trips. For true sale items buy extra (not just 1 weeks worth). Always buy the larger box or bag. Cut back on pop buy punch or coolaid especially if you have kids!
You don’t have to compete with anyone. Be proud of who you are and what you have. If all you have is a 20-year-old TV set that still has a beautiful picture, don’t give in to the temptation to buy a large plasma TV just because brother Charles bought one. Competitiveness is natural and to a degree, healthy. However, when competition creates a buying war to see who can have the “best” when they have no business buying at all, then it becomes damaging.
