Make not buy

I never thought about how easy it was to make my own food. I was vegan for a few years (no this isn't going to be a post about reforming you to not eating meat) and discovered that making your own items is easier than it looks in most cases. You can make your own food and clothing for a fraction of what it costs you to purchase the same items in stores. And I have a few links to share with you and show you how. Yummy Blueberry/lemon muffins, fresh flavored lemonade, making fun and fashionable accessories. Read on to save time, money and be creative.

Cancel those unsed memberships

Disney Movie Club, your W.O.W account or that Farmville game, don't forget your magazine subscriptions that are piling up on your coffee table collecting dust and deducting your hard earned money out of you wallet. Also, that gym membership that you thought was a great deal. If you aren't using it, then lose it for good. You have lived without these luxuries of life for this long why not just give them up?

30 day rule

Impulsivity will thwart your chances of saving money and attempts to pay off bills sooner rather than later. If you constantly overspend because you see a really cool item, you will find it difficult to save money and maintain a budget.
