Even though receiving Amazon packages you don’t remember ordering feels like adult Christmas, we can all agree it’s not the best habit for your bank account. If you want to commit to things like saving for retirement, stocking up an emergency fund, or avoiding credit card debt, the frugal lifestyle is calling your name .Here are some easy tips to add a little frugality to your day-to-day:
- Buy In Bulk. Scratch that shopping itch and save money at the same time. Buy in bulk! Especially if you’re into eating meat. You can save a pile of cash every year if you buy family-size portions of meat instead of individually cut pieces.
- Plan Meals Around Deals. According to frugality blogger Robyn Goldfarb “the number one way to save money at the grocery store is to plan your meals around what you buy, not the other way around.” Basically, your meal prepping should start in your favorite grocery store’s coupon section.
- Freeze Fruits And Vegetables. Instead of throwing away those bananas that aren’t going to make it another day, freeze them. Frozen fruit and veggies make great smoothies and quick sides.
- Garage Sales. Get to thrift shop items before they hit the thrift store by getting into garage sales. If the germs freak you out, may we remind you there is this thing called soap?
- Hang Your Clothes To Dry. Not only will setting a drying rack save you money on your electric bill, but it will also help your clothes last longer. Less money spent on clothes means more money in your pocket. Aren’t you tired of finding your dryer sheets stuck inside your clothes anyways?
