3 Quick & Obscenely Easy Money Saving Tips

September 20, 2011 · Filed Under , · 2 Comments 

All money saving tips don’t have to be a pain in the butt. Some are actually really easy and only require a little bit of time. My 3 tips WILL NOT include selling your car and start riding your skateboard to work like Marty McFly. You also won’t hear anything about brewing your own coffee, I think everybody on Earth already knows this is much cheaper than a $4 milkshake from Starbuck’s. Instead, I am hoping at least 2 of these tips are new to you.

Lower Your Bills

Lower Your DishNetwork bill

Do you have expensive cable or satellite TV? Or perhaps a DSL subscription you would like to lower? Here is an easy tip to lower all of these bills in 15 minutes. Just call up their customer service department and say you want to cancel because it is just too expensive. They don’t want to lose your business and will do darn near anything to keep you as a loyal customer. I have personally done this and received $15 off my Dish Network bill for 1 year, and the introductory DSL rate of $19.99 per month for 2 years. It took all of 10 minutes to do both and I saved $25 per month and $300 for the year. Easy money.

Save on Food

Never grocery shop when you are hungry, you’ll buy less junk food. Also, go to the grocery store when you are in a hurry and have limited time to spend, you will waste less time meandering the frozen dessert aisle buying junk. Always shop with a list, it will keep you on track. Buy bulk items and non-perishables when they are on sale. They last forever and can be easily stored in the pantry. Buy chicken when it’s on sale and store it in the freezer. It does not get freezer burnt, and stores really well. Also, learn to cook more than you need and use the leftovers for lunch the next day or freeze it for another meal down the road. These tips are really easy to follow and can save you at the very least $50 a month. It saves my family over $1,000 a year.

Use Online Promotion Codes

Enter Promotion Code

This tip may seem a bit biased, but saving money using online coupons and promotional codes couldn’t be easier. It still amazes me how many people I run into that don’t know about online coupon codes and fail to notice the coupon code box when checking out from online retailers. Here are some of the more popular coupon offers on Rather-Be-Shopping.com right now. Happy saving!

    Great tips, Kyle. I do that one with my cable company every few years. I hate how they offer you the lowest rate possible if you’re a new customer, but if you’re a loyal customer for years they charge you through the nose. It’s hysterical how well it works, but it does!

    It’s kind of a silly game, huh. But if it saves you money you gotta play it.
