Monique with Stretching the One Income on a Dollar has some great money saving tips on her blog. Her blog is about living on one income, making less go further, but still not giving up a good life!
Here is her money saving tips:
Having a household full of kids makes it tough to manage a budget. It seems bills just pile up when you own a home and have kids. She tries to read articles online about saving money and what to cut back on, but usually the suggestions are things that we have already done. Well, here is a way to get instant savings. Buying gift cards on MyCoupons.com! So, here is how you save. You can buy these gift cards below face value. Do you shop for the kids at Gymboree, if so; you can buy their gift card with $57 balance for $50. Instant $7 savings! They have hundreds of retailers with all kinds of different card amounts. For us, it is perfect because we have 5-6 places that we frequent and now we can save money every time. Since the cards don’t expire, you can keep them until you use the entire balance.
Now, while you are MyCoupons.com, did you see all the offers? What about combining one of those discounted gift cards with a coupon offer. They have Sears Coupons, Cabelas Coupons, and favorite online retailer, Amazon Coupons. Hopefully this helps to save a few dollars here and there. Keep a list and add up the savings over the course of a few months. It will help. If you have any tips, pass them along. Look forward to hearing from you.
