10 Money-Saving Tips

You may not be able to influence the economy, but you can influence the decisions you make. Here are 10 suggestions for handling your funds courtesy of BALANCE.

1- Analyze your spending patterns. Knowing where your money is going will make it simpler to make changes if necessary. For a week or two, try using BALANCE's Fritter Finder tool to track where your money is going.
2- Distinguish needs from wants. That 42-inch flat-screen television—do you really need it? Spending should only occur when absolutely essential when money is scarce.
3- Avoid paying your expenses with credit. Using credit may make things simpler today, but it may ultimately result in higher monthly payments.
4- Regularly save. Directly deposit a portion of your paycheck into your savings account, or set up a monthly automatic transfer from your checking account to your savings account.
5- Examine your insurance contracts. Review all of your policies' coverage details. You can have too much and be wasting money, or you might have too little and not have enough insurance. You may get the best protection at the lowest cost with the aid of Virginia CU Insurance Services.
6- Spending a lot of money on recurring expenses like presents and vacations should be avoided. While spending money may make you feel good at the time, you could wish you had it afterwards.
7- Reduce the quality of your services. Is it possible to have no cable at all or a less expensive cable package? If you use a cell phone, you might want to get rid of your land line.
8- Try to cut your energy costs. When not in use, turn off the lights and the appliances. Invest in energy-saving light bulbs. When possible, switch to a sweater or a fan instead of turning on the air conditioning or heating.
9- Think about registering for online bill payment. You can ensure that your payments are received on time and save money on stamps. VACU members can pay their bills online for nothing.
10- Reduce the number of takeout orders. Even if the meal is not pricey, eating it frequently might add up to a lot of money. One $10 pizza per week will set you back more than $500 per year!
