end of this article you could be on your way to saving for your next vacation or special gift you may have wanted.
Getting started or should I say keeping it up is
hardest part. But you can do it all it takes is a little dedication.
Tip 1
It should be no surprise that you should start with your loose change. You have heard that saving loose change quickly adds up, it really does.
Here's what you can do to start today, when you get home after a long days work. Find a jar or large container that will be used for loose change only. Empty you pockets, jackets, pocketbook, and car of all loose change.
Put it in
container or jar you have ready. This is your project, so tell no one this is
first step you should take to be sure it will work. Do this everyday single day, or at
end of
week if that is easier for you to maintain. I prefer to do it daily. After you fill your jar, forget about, that’s right don't think about it anymore until its time to put your loose change in for
next day or end of
week.
Tip 2
If you see this is not working, its ok you can move up to one-dollar bills. Of course one-dollar bills will add up quickly. Use
same technique as above, at
end of
day or week take all
one dollar bills you have in your pocket and put them away.
If one-dollar bills, still is not to you liking no problem continue on to tip 3 for yet a better way of adding your savings up.
Tip 3
By now you should know where I am going next, you guessed it five-dollar bills. This one is
best, this will add up even faster. Instead of saving your loose change, or one-dollar bills, go with five-dollar bills. They will ad up five times faster then one-dollar bills. Or if you are able to do all three by all means give it a try, I wait till
end of
week to for this one that way I don't end up having to go to my can during
week for lunch money.
Tip 4
Enough is enough, this one can be added to what you decide to do or you could just replace this tip with one of
above already suggested. We all have to eat breakfast, lunch and dinner while at work everyday. So for those of you who eat out during these times, you should really reconsider. Bringing in lunch and dinner depending on when what shift you work can save you hundreds alone everyone month.
