Want to save money – here are some money saving tips! 1. Cut the cost of your fuel bills – if you’ve never dumped your original supplier you could save hundreds of pounds each year. It’s really easy to switch and your new supplier will take care of the formalities. 2. Consider installing a water meter – if you have a large home with few occupants or live alone you could halve your annual bill. 3. Consider a pay as you go mobile – are you paying more than you should each month for a package you don’t use or need. You can buy mobile phones really cheap and top up with pay as you go vouchers. 4. Make a shopping list – we chuck out around £500 of food each year and supermarkets are very clever at enticing you to buy things you don’t need. Plan your meals, make a list and stick to it! 5. Consider own brand goods – try supermarkets own and do a taste test on your family – they probably won’t even notice! 6. Learn to say “no” – it’s easy to give in to the demands of a screaming child in a busy store but saying “no” a few times will save you a fortune! 7. Buy clothes and presents in the sales – not only do you save money but you enjoy stress free Christmas and no last minute birthday worries. 8. The National Lottery – it’s likely that it won’t be you! The odds of winning the Lotto jackpot are stacked 14m to 1 against each ticket. Entering the lottery for fun sometimes but you could consider saving this money for something you want or need. 9. Do you need all those TV channels? Consider your TV package and if you don’t get Freeview! 10. Shop online – there are lots of comparison sites to make sure you’re getting the best deal , you’re not tempted by offers or cleverly placed luxuries and it can be more fun that queuing for half an hour at the checkout!
