Pay a portion of you salary to yourself
Think of it this way. You are working extremely hard to earn a salary, then why should all the expenses and bills see it before you? When you get your paycheque give a small portion of it to yourself first. Keep it in the saving account and then pay all your bill and living expenses. If the remainder of salary is not enough then cut the expenses, don’t buy certain things and make it do with it.
Create a spending budget
Make sure to create a spending budget and stick to it. Cut back on most of the things that are unnecessary before the month starts select a day on which you go through all the expenses of the last month and then create a new spending budget. Check your success and fall backs and work on those. This way you have a clear understanding on what needs to be cut on and if you are succeeding in keeping up with the spending list
Stop looking through daily deals and sales
This is all about avoiding temptation that wego through in everday life. Deals and sales are made so that the corporations can get yoy to spend money on things you don’t actually need. In the end you are losing more money than saving when you purchase on deals, as you were not going to get or spend money on it before.
So don’t subscribe to anything and avoid spending unnecessarily. Avoid signing up for emails that offer you daily deals.
