Frugal Household Hacks

Saving money and cutting your household expenses is a lot easier than it may seem.  For example when I finally looked at all the places we were spending money I was amazed at the amount of money we were wasting eating out.

Frugal Hacks

Some nights I was just too tired to cook and hadn’t prepared anything.  Other nights I was all for an evening out. What I didn’t think about was how this was killing our budget.

Simple fix to an expensive problem – meal planning.  I plan about two weeks worth of meals at a time.

This means I know what I need at the grocery store and the meals are written on the calendar so I know what needs to be prepared ahead of time.

Stop Buying Stuff You Don’t Need

Have you really looked at what you spend your money on?   Have you looked into cheaper alternatives or whether you really use all the stuff you buy?
