Adopting these top ten frugal habits can save you up to $1,000.00 in any given month (sometimes more). Now, this list isn’t in any particular order of importance. I believe that they are all equally important, and the more that you are able to implement on this list, the more money you will save.
The first habit has to do with your morning routine. If you find yourself stopping by your local Starbucks on the way to work (or any other expensive coffee bistro, for that matter), simply stop. To be honest, even when I was a coffee drinker, I didn’t care much for Starbucks, anyway. I know a lot of Starbucks fans out there aren’t going to like hearing this, but I think that their coffee tastes way too strong. I recall ordering Starbucks coffee only on a handful of occasions, and I had determined that I simply don’t like the taste. For the purposes of this show, it’s less about taste preferences and more about the money that you’ll save from avoiding expensive orders of coffee altogether. Your approximate total saved in one month if you avoid spending the bucks at the ‘Bucks every day of the month would be around $120.00. Not too shabby, and really, quite eye-opening.
Number two on the list is magazine or newspaper subscriptions. More and more often, people’s first reaction when they want to learn something is to reach for their cell phone or log on to their computer and do a Google search. You really can find almost anything that you want to find on the Internet, and while that does require paying for Internet access, if you really wanted to earn some bonus points for extreme frugality, don’t bother paying for Internet access and do your research at your local library instead. Dumping subscriptions won’t save you a fortune every month, but generally speaking, you’d be looking at around $30.00 savings on average each month, assuming that you would be subscribing to both magazines and your local newspaper.
