SAVING MONEY IS KEY!
Yes, I used capital on the sentence above to stress how important it is. You are bound to get a high electric bill, a vacation bill that turned out to be more or a grocery bill that seems to have doubled (thanks inflation).
Question is, how can we save money?
I will focus on groceries today
A) Buy items that are on sale with coupons. (Patience is key) Get the coupons, organize them, and wait for the item to go on sale at your local grocery store. Relax, it will go on sale and when it does, you will save sometimes over 50%.
B) Dont buy things you do not need. You really don't need those candy bars, not even when they are going 2 for a $1. Walk away!
C) Soda. Walk away. I have been seeing a lot of deals on buying coke cans. Some of these deals even make sense but the key is to walk away. The long term consequences of drinking soda are not good. The short term consequences are not good either. Best solution, walk away.
D) Plan your grocery trips out. Know what you need and what is on sale and what you have a coupon for. Going to a grocery story with no battle plan is like going to a toy store with a 4 year old and hoping for the best. Planning is key. Trust me
These 4 important points are a beginning to getting smarter in the quest of saving $.
Hang in there...Knowledge will help.
