It’s amazing how money flies out the door and we sometimes are not aware of it. During these challenging economic times, take a moment to rethink your everyday actions and see where you can save. Here are some things to think about:
In the kitchen—Do you eat take-out often? Do you finish all the leftovers? How many times do you run the dishwasher when it’s not full?
In the bathroom—Do you leave the water running while you brush your teeth or soap up?
In the laundry room—Do you wash too many small loads of laundry? Do you use hot water when cold will do?
At the grocery store—Do you make a shopping list and stick to it? (making a weekly menu will help), Do you shop when you are hungry? Do you shop more than once a week?
In the family room—Do you rent a movie and then not watch it? Do you leave the TV on when you are not in the room?
In the car—Do you make extra trips or run errands because you didn’t plan ahead?
