The Top 6 Money-Saving Strategies
We're all looking for ways to save money. And everyone has their own method of saving, whether it's depriving yourself of that $4 mocha latte once a week or deferring an exotic family vacation.
Use these money-saving ideas to come up with new methods to save money in your everyday life.
- Pay Off Your Debts
Start with the debt if you're trying to save money through budgeting but still have a lot of debt. Are you still not convinced? You'll quickly realize if you add up how much you spend each month on debt service. When you're no longer paying interest on your debt, you can easily put that money into savings. A personal line of credit is one of the options available to you.
- Establish Savings Objectives
Visualizing what you're saving for is one of the most effective strategies to save money. Set saving goals and a timeline to help you save more easily if you need incentive. Want to buy a property with a 20% down payment in three years? You now have a goal in mind and know how much money you'll need to save each month to reach it. To achieve your goal, use the Regions savings calculators!
- Save to Spend
Because, let's face it, utility expenses rarely decrease over time, now is the time to take action and weatherize your home. Request an energy audit from your utility company, or identify a licensed contractor who can perform a whole-home energy efficiency assessment. It might be as simple as sealing windows and doors, or as complex as installing new insulation, siding, or ENERGY STAR high-efficiency appliances and goods. Over time, you could save tens of thousands of dollars in utility bills.
- Take care of yourself first.
Set up a monthly automatic transfer from your checking account to your savings account. Don't cheat yourself out of a good long-term savings strategy, whether it's $50 every two weeks or $500.
- Take advantage of a "Staycation"
Though the name is fashionable, the concept is sound: instead of spending thousands on international flight tickets, look for entertaining vacations close to home in your own backyard. If you are unable to travel the distance, seek for inexpensive flights in your area.
- Give up smoking
No, quitting isn't easy, but if you smoke a pack and a half a day, you'll save about $3,000 a year if you quit. For the first time since at least the mid-1960s, the percentage of Americans who smoke cigarettes has fallen below 20%, according to the Centers for Disease Control — join the club!
