Got any money saving tips?

I love hearing them, it’s always great to hear what everyone else has to say and see if I am missing any tricks when it comes to helping us all save some money.

I currently have a page where you can submit your money saving tip and each month I will select the best one and it will be posted in here and also win a £25 voucher!

• I was told an amazing money saving tip a few weeks ago when I attended Bishop Auckland college where I was giving a talk to staff there.  A lady I spoke to says she and her husband kept their first anniversary, birthday, valentines cards etc and every year when it comes around again they write a new little verse in it. She says she is saving money but also it is a great keepsake to look back on and see the message he wrote for her 10 years ago…. I love this idea, it is so romantic! I will now be doing this with my husband 🙂
• March winner – Dina.  I sign up to every store card for extra savings and use them vouchers savings christmas time. i get to know where all sale sections are in the shops and get to know the staff marking items down as they would be willing to reduce some items well some staff sometimes do. make items to sell use as pressies etc and shop out of season as in winter clothes in spring and summer etc
• February winner – Pam. After seeing a recent TV programme, I went through my freezer and cupboards and made a list of all I had. Armed with that, I made a monthly menu plan and have spent under £50 (for 5 of us) for the next month and we get to run down the cupboards and freezer quite a bit too. No more cries of “I haven’t got anything in”!
