Adopt Smart Saving Strategies

(Part 2 of a 3 part series on getting your finances in order) Link to Part 1: 5 Ways To Get Out of Debit

Lower your big monthly bills

Consider refinancing your mortgage and car loans – typically, the biggest bills a family pays each month – at lower interest rates. This will increase the amount of money you’ll be able to save.

1)  As you gradually pay off your consumer debt, your credit score will rise. This will make you eligible for lower interest rates on your mortgage. (Check your credit score at no cost through annualcreditreport.com.) Talk with your mortgage broker regularly to see whether interest rates have declined.  Or search for lower rates online. Bankrate.com updates mortgage rates weekly based on data from banks across the country.

2)  Pay off your car loan with a home equity line of credit. Typically, home equity loans carry lower interest rates than car loans. The interest you pay each month is tax deductible. Search for the lowest rates at bankrate.com and interest.com.

Spend Less

After digging yourself out of debt, here are strategies that will keep you in the black.

1)  Don’t place yourself in situations where you’re likely to make impulse purchases – for example, don’t wander through Borders on your lunch hour if you can’t resist magazines or CDs.  If you receive a lot of catalogs at home, cancel them through catalogchoice.org.

2)  Don’t shop recreationally.  Instead of “going to the mall” for fun, make a list of the items that you need, and go only to the stores where you can find a good price on them.  If window-shopping tempts you to spend, don’t go to movie theaters or restaurants in shopping malls.

3)  Don’t shop online.  Make it more difficult to log on to shopping sites by not bookmarking them.  Think of the Internet as a source of information, not a source of shopping entertainment!

4)  Put yourself on a spending allowance. Calculate the amount that you can afford to spend each week on discretionary expenses, such as buying lunch, clothing, books, music, coffee, dinners out, movies, and so on.  Go to the ATM on Friday; withdraw that amount, and don’t take out any more cash (or use a charge card!) during the week.  If you spend your money over the weekend, pack your lunches, and don’t go out to eat or shop until the following Friday.

5)  Turn frugality into a game.  See how much you can save by bringing lunch from home.  Form a thrift group at your church to share coupons and inexpensive recipes and to exchange ideas about free activities in your community.  Substitute a healthy activity – like a swim or walk – for a shopping spree.

(The next part – “Start Saving Now” – will be posted next week)

I respectfully disagree with the "don't shop online" suggestion. Especially for books - by buying used books online, I've repeatedly saved more than half the cost of a book from the large chain stores, even including shipping. And I've never been disappointed in the quality yet. In fact a recent purchase classed as "good" turned out to be brand new. It cost 2.00 from a Goodwill in Chicago. Shipping was 3.99. The same book would have cost $16.00 plus tax in a store.
Also, there are great search engines to compare prices online, as well as consumer reviews that have rarely steered me wrong (the more reviews that agree, the better). Free shipping offers are also common and often determine whether or not I make a purchase. In short, online shopping saves me big, both in terms of time and money, not to mention the invaluable help with making an informed purchase.

Hair straighteners got their name before the professionals figured out how to use them to stylishly bend, curl, flip, and add bounce to hair, too. The GHD Ceramic Hair Straightener have been ahead of the game from the beginning, because their designers gave them a shape that is more round than most straighteners, giving them added versatility to create any and every style you can imagine. They will gently straighten hair, if that is the look you desire. But they are just as adept at sculpting styles that incorporate classy crimps, fabulous flips, wonderful waves, and more. If you can envision it, you can create it with the GHD Ceramic Hair Straightener. Infrared heat for damage-free styling, along with negative ion emissions, help craft the look you want in less time, making this the perfect choice for use when time is short. The combination of fast-heating ceramic and aluminum plates deliver perfect control while sealing in hair’s oils and natural moisturizing agents. The electrical compatibility between 110 volt and 230 volt also makes it great for travelling at home or abroad.
