I'm going to try to get a new car in August, so I need to start saving today. I have several ways I can save money.
1. Cut off my home phone. Think about it, do you REALLY need two phones? there's $50
2. I purchased cable TV. I don't need to watch TV and I was beter off without it. $45
*the sad part is, for about a $200 investment, I could rig it up to recieve free cable for as long as I had broadband internet*
3.I could give up Broadband and save another $45, but that ain't happening.
4.I can replace one daily meal with a sanwich from home in leiu of eating out and save anywhere from $85 - $150 monthly.
5. I stopped getting my hair professionally cut. I'm balding and it looks like crap no matter what I do. Set of clippers & $20 saved.
6. If I got really froggy, I could ride my bike for short trips and save $20 a month in gas.
7. Being a bit more stingy with my thermostat could get $20 or more off my power bill.
Potential saving could go as high as $240 a month. That would be more than enough to cover a car payment. Not to mention the cash I could save not driving a gas hog.
