12 Money-Saving Tips You Should Master

This post may contain affiliate links, which means I'll receive a commission if you purchase through my link at no additional cost. You can read my full disclosure here.

Whether you are saving for a house deposit or perhaps something a little smaller, there are things that you can do at home to save money. I wanted to share my 12 money-saving tips with you that you can apply in the home and implement today.

Try these money-saving tips:

  1. Make a shopping list. How often have you gone to the grocery store and ended up buying things you think you wanted rather than the things you needed?
    • If you use a magnetic whiteboard and put it on your fridge, you can keep it updated with the items you need. Only stick to these items and avoid buying anything you don’t currently need.
  2. Eat more fresh produce. You may think that buying fresh food is expensive, but this is not the case.
    • You can even prep meals to get them ready for those days when you know you will be busy. Therefore, you are also eating healthier too, rather than opting for junk food and ready meals.
  3. Stick to drinking water. Rather than opting for a soda, tea, or other beverage, choose water. It’s healthier and more affordable. This is the best money-saving tip out here but it’s hard because sometimes you want more than just water.
    • Avoid bottled water too. Buying a water filter and using filtered tap water can save money.
  4. Limit habits that cost money. For example, if you smoke or need to have an alcoholic drink each night, consider stopping or cutting back a bit. Not only will it save you some money, but your health will improve too.

More great tips below:

  1. Borrow what you don’t often need. Instead of buying the latest appliance that you’ll only use once before putting it in the cupboard forever, ask a friend or a neighbor if you could borrow theirs.
  2. Buy store brand goods. You can save lots of money off your grocery bill when you buy store or generic products such as cereal and medication.
  3. Use a cold wash for laundry. Most of your clothes will be completely fine when washed at a low temperature. Heating the water is what costs the most money.
  4. Unplug appliances you aren’t using. Rather than waste money on electronics and appliances that are not used, unplug them. Whenever they’re plugged in, they use electricity, even when they’re turned off. This is a no-brainer for money-saving tips but most people don’t do it.

Closing out the tips below:

  1. Avoid buying scented candles. We all love to have a beautiful smelling home, but you don’t need to purchase expensive scented candles to achieve it. Use baking soda to remove odor from carpets and fabrics, while a small pot of cinnamon or vanilla left to simmer on your stove can make your house more appealing to any visitors.
  2. Learn essential home maintenance. You will occasionally have to bring in a professional to do specific jobs. However, if you learn how to do necessary home maintenance and repairs, you can save money by doing easy repairs yourself.
  3. Learn to sew. Instead of throwing away clothing or other fabric household items, you can often repair them with a few simple stitches, saving you from buying new things.
  4. Barter with friends and family. If you need some work done around your home, and a friend or family member knows how to do it, you could consider asking them for an exchange of skills. You could do something for them in return.

You don’t need to make massive changes in your life to save money. Making a few of these changes can make an enormous difference in the amount of money you can save.

When you use cost-saving measures such as these, remember to add the money you’ve saved to your savings account.

A few small changes can add up to a lot over time! The money-saving tips will help you for a lifetime!

Quick Hack for feeding grilled food to little kidd Quick Hack for feeding grilled food to little kiddos.

Yes, kids have choked on the skin/casing of food. Peeling it off allows them to still have the flavor without them trying to peel it off anyway because of the texture. 

Common foods this happens on
✨ Hotdogs
✨ Sausages 
✨ Some Nuts
✨ Some Candies
✨ Grapes

Make sure you are cutting these foods in small pieces for small kids to eat them with no issues

Thank you to everyone that wished Noah a Happy Bir Thank you to everyone that wished Noah a Happy Birthday, yesterday πŸ₯Ή

I take birthdays seriously, especially his. 

Due to RSV, Flu & Rona, we’ve never been able to plan big parties for him so the hubs and I bend over backward and do our best to make sure he feels special. 

He had a pretty light day. 
1️⃣ he ate his favorite meal: Bacon 🀣
2️⃣ licked the icing off the cupcakes
3️⃣ watched #AbbottElementary 
4️⃣ ate β€œnoodles” aka Ramen 
5️⃣ came home and had screentime

This is Part 1 of his birthday festivities. Part 2 coming soon. πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸ₯°

He knocked it over again an hour later and it’s back on the floor in millions of pieces. 🫳🏾🎀

Even though the mask hurt my face, he was having a good time so that is all that matters. Three-nager loading πŸβ™‘οΈ
