Write down everything you spend, pay only in cash. Don't eat out even in Mc Donald. Lol, do what my mother does, eat at buffet, put some food in plastic bag for later. |

Yes.. but I would start off small.. like a set amount taken out of your checking account and applied to your savings.. its hard at first but then you learn to live within that figure..while your savings is getting bigger.
No eating out anymore,(means make your lunch in the morning) & turn off all lights when not in use,
Set out weekly plans on what your making so, you can stretch the items alittle longer..
example, spaghetti monday.. save left over sauce not used & make a calzone for tuesday night.. if not freeze it for another night
Or.. buy a frozen pack of small cut chicken for $9-$10 dollars and use only what you need..nothing extra on each meal.
A fresh pasta salad can last 4 days. so that's a good savings right there.
Gather all the stuff you havent used in a year.. and guess what.. you can sell them at a garage sale & apply that to the savings too,
Save all the cans & bottles and copper and turn that in.
Hope all the suggestions help. |

Bring lunch, walk when you can instead of driving, dont eat out, watch TV instead of renting movies or going to the movies, cut meals in half when eating out or at home. That is about all I can suggest without knowing your lifestyle. |

Well, If I were you, if I were willing to save money. I will spend money as minimum as possible. If you are saving for something important so do it. |

This is very easy to do when you have no money at all. Thing is when people have money they just think about spending. You must be able to see when you are spending too.there are many things people was money on. One good example is mobile pay monthly bills. Spending 10 pounds or more on mobiles is ........... |

bring your breakfast or lunch or dinner to work. no eating out. no entertainment such as movies or going out at all. cut the bills off that you do not need or have a contract for, like satelite or cell phones or netflix. dont wash so much laundry. wear the jeans a few times at least before you wash them. use the towel a few times before you wash it. dont drive anywhere but to work and to get groceries. keep the utilities low by not running the AC and washing clothes and dishes with cold water.

stay at home all the time, get rid of stuff you dont need like cable and air conditioning. buy groceries in bulk, dont go out to eat. dont use car get a bike instead.only buy things you really need. |

Definately cut out eating out. That always saves me a TON of money. If you set a limit for your spending on your credit card/debit card that helps too because it helps to weed out the purchases that you don't really need.
I only drive as much as I need to, and spend only on the essentials and I have been doing this for 2 months. I have TRIPLED my savings. |
