Spending Money

Save $1000 In A Year? 

Wouldn’t it be great to save over $1000 this year? What if you could save $1000 in a couple of months?  Do you think you can do it?

$1000 Cash

Personally, I would love to have an extra $1000 in my pocket.  An extra $1000 to put in an emergency fund or to save for something special.

Saving $1000

What if I told you saving $1000 is easier than you think and you could probably save $1000 in less than a year?

Frugal Money Saving Tips

Below you will find 10 frugal tips that will help you save over $1000.  Try one, try them all.  Work the ideas around until they fit your life, your schedule.  Some ideas may work for you, some ideas may not.

10 Frugal Tips That Will Save Money:

1. Set up a budget

Budgets are way easier to setup and use than you think. And they aren’t restrictive as some may see them as. In fact a budget allows you to make your money work for you.

2. Stop buying things you don’t need

Have you ever really assessed what you are buying?  What are you really using and what is going to waste?

I took a step back and assessed our budget and what we were buying and what we were actually using.  To my surprise there was a lot of waste and a lot of things that I could be getting for cheaper.  You can learn more about what I stopped buying to save tons of money every month.

3. Learn how to grocery shop efficiently

We have all done the quick rush stop at the grocery store that turns into more than we bargain for.   Learn tips and tricks to saving money at the grocery store.

4. Enjoy no spend fun

Did you know you can spend a whole weekend having a great time and spend no money?  You don’t need to spend money to have fun.

5. Learn to meal plan

It’s 5:25 pm and you’re staring at the fridge wondering what to cook for dinner.   Stress, frustration and a hungry tummy set in.  Add in the inevitable question “Mom what’s for dinner?”

Save yourself the tummy rumbles, the frustration and the stress.  Learn to meal plan and you will have an answer for the what’s for dinner question.

6. Learn to live more frugally

Living frugally isn’t about hoarding all your pennies and cutting back on everything.  Living frugally is about making choices.

Choosing to change a few things to save money.  Discover 75 ways to live more frugally and save money.

7. Stop wasting money on paper products

Paper products consume money and they are generally single use items.   Start saving money by investing in cloth napkins and reusable cleaning cloths.

8. Clear the clutter and stop buying stuff

When was the last time you bought something you already had?  Clear the clutter and saving money.

9. Start cooking from scratch

How much did you spend on eating out last week? Breakfast, coffee, lunch or dinner it adds up.  Start cooking from scratch and brown bag your lunch. 

⭐Checkout these great resources to help you get started:

  • meal plans and great recipes
  • food storage containers
  • lunch boxes
  • travel coffee mugs

10. Change your mind set

You can live very well on less. You just need to change your mindset.
