5 Money Saving Tips and Habits to Have

From Stonegate Financial Group

Cable and Satellite TV

Cable and satellite TV expenses can cost hundreds every month!

Instead, Stonegate Financial Group tells individuals to consider subscribing to Netflix or Hulu that costs about $8/month for their viewing purposes, instead of spending so much on TV expenses.

Refrain from Eating Out

Eating out at lunch can cost upwards of $50 a week, for a total of more than $200 a month!

Instead, cook larger portions and bring sack lunches to work and school.

Doing this will help you to save money and will be easier if you plan ahead!

Pay Off Your Credit CardsOne of the biggest mistakes that people make is that they don’t pay off their credit card balance every month, which accumulates interest and leads to debt!

Make sure that you can afford your credit card bill at the end of the month by keeping a close eye on expenses.

Bring Cash When You Shop

Whether it’s at the grocery store, clothing store, or anywhere else that you might be going or spending money at, you should consider bringing cash along to pay for the purchases.

Doing this will limit what you can buy, instead of with a credit card where budgets can be skewed and gone over.

Shop SmartNo matter where you shop, you should consider shopping sales, clearances and utilizing coupons in order to save more on the items that you purchase.
