Here are 10 ways where you can save money changing or cutting off something in your everyday life. Read on.

Take advantage of the sun

For those who are having a sunny day, you are so lucky! Use that sun to your advantage and save so much money. You can use the sun to dry your clothes for example. Dont you know that you can save as much as $100 a year if you hang your clothes up to a line and let the sun dry it? Or you can also turn off your heater and enjoy the sun.

Skip the dishwasher

I dont have dishwasher at the house. Not only because it cost me a lot of money using it everyday, but because dishwashers doesnt really get the dishes clean enough for me. Sometimes there are foods or rice left or even soap. So skip it! You’ll be saving a huge amount of money every year plus you’ll also do yourself a favor and make your dishes much cleaner.

Become a coupon expert

Couponing is a great way to save money so know where to find them and then use it well! Nowadays, there’s just a coupon for almost everything. There are coupons ranging from grocery items and electronic gadgets to three-course meals and vacation getaways. It’s hard to justify paying anything in regular price with coupons being easily accessible everywhere!



Unplug everything that is not in use

We are always reminded by this money saving tip since we were a child. And that’s because it is the ultimate money saving tip. If you’re really serious about saving money, unplug if you can.

Eat your meals at home

Mc Donald’s, Burger King, Wendy’s etc. Do you know that the prices of the food in a diner is double the price compare to the foods you cook yourself? What more if you prefer high end restaurants. So cook your own meals. Dont have time to cook? Find time. It would help you save so much money.

Grow your own food

Better than cooking your food is growing it too. Think of how much money you’ll save if you grow your own tomatoes or cabbages. Not only will you save money but you’ll also be sure that what you are eating is fresh and artificial free.

Switch to reusable ecigarettes

Cigarettes are getting more and more expensive. Now it’s at $10 a pack in some states. It’s time to stop smoking and switch to ecigarettes. Top electronic cigarette brands will give you the same satisfying experience of real cigarettes and it costs so much less. Do you know that you can save as much as $2000 a year when you decide to switch to electronic cigarettes? That is not counting the medical bills you pay when you get sick because of smoking. And what’s even better is that there are electronic cigarette coupons available online. Like this Mig Cigs Coupon from Ecigologist.com. Ecig coupons can help you save as much as 50% off instantly.



Clean with vinegar

This life hack is going to change your life. No need to buy expensive cleaning solutions. All you have to do is get an old rag and use vinegar to make any of your jewelry sparkle.

Coffee Outside is a No-no

Coffee sold at restaurants and coffee shops are so much expensive than making your own coffee at home. So say goodbye to Starbucks or other coffee shops. If you cant fully ditch Starbucks (I know because I cant resist it myself), then at least lessen the times you will get coffee at it.

Ditch the unused gym membership

A gym membership may be appealing but it’s definitely not the cheapest way to stay slim and keep fit. Instead of signing up for one, why don’t you take up running and start a running club in your community?
