tips and tricks to make savings

[RudolfTheRed]

- Don't Eat Out: Make sure you cook all your food at home. This will save you tons of money.

- Ride A Bike: When I lived in town I would ride my bike everywhere. Saved tons of cash in gas and car maintenance. I only had a car for long trips.

check pay phones for quarters

When I was a little kid(WAY before cell phones) I would love to go to the airport just so I could check all the pay phones, I swear I would find at least 3 + dollars worth of quarters total every time.

bigger cities along the coasts have $3.00+ p/gal fuel costs right now:

This applies more to V-8s & V-6s for bigger savings but any 4 cylinder car will benefit as well. If you're able to reduce your overall speed by 10mph you'll burn 15% less gas. I always drove fast, not reckless fast but not often passed by anyone. I've slowed down to the limit or just 5mph over & I'm saving $$$ every time I drive.

15% better fuel economy translates to you saving about 50 cents per gallon at the pump & you're doing your part keeping it green.......

this puts or keeps money in your pocket as soon as you slow down. best savings is money in my hands today.

btw, any good mechanic will tell you "oil's cheaper than parts!" save yourself a fortune and keep your car/truck running best with regular oil changes, PERIOD

to save fuel...a couple more tricks....
-stay behind a truck or bigger car than yours...with aspiration you'll make some good savings...
-remain as aerodynamic as possible...nothing on the roof,windows close, no aeration...
-carpool

and for the joke...
-use a suction cup and a rope to catch those truck...
-train for marathon, and make a hole in the bottom of your car where your feet are...the flintstones are so inspirational

- if you're with a bank that charges fees... why!?!? There are plenty of high-interest fee-free bank accounts out there

Drop the cable bill and get yourself and HD Antenna. The amount we pay in communication fees these days is ridiculous. Off air is the preferred transmission for digital signals. I'm in the middle of an urban area and get like 100 channels with a lot less interference than a satellite dish off an amplified HD Antenna I installed in the attic.

It has already been said, but grow your own. Learn how to make your own hash and edibles. Never buy weed again.

SSO you have hit the nail on the head

Save all the pre 1974 coins.
Fast food places have them,Grocery stores with real people counting change will have them.Its not really good for anything but its fun finding the oldies and if you don't spend them then you're saving.
Plus you will look totally O.C.D. staring hard at every penny,nickle and dime that comes your way.

To keep a savings just go without shavings maybe plan things and eat can things.

It a man thing, something a man bring, into the picture.

Go figure, plants grow bigger, when your pullin the trigger, and feeding them.

I use chem fertiliser, order appetisers, always to the wire until I retire, in peace.

Keep that dog on a leash, its ah beast, a meat eater, electricity man reading my meter.

He knows its a grow op but he always buys the po.. ot, a stoned meter reader indeeder.

Its all about savings, try to save things, maybe money, to spend on cravings, you know those Lays things.

Obvious munchies, different food different countries its something, to consider

Ok ok I am done run run run, HAHA cruising in BAHA with my lighta puffin fire yes Si er, a pot head F'in up the thread, oh no man Im dead, price on my head, its a thousands bucks army of a thousand trucks a million guns F'in endless funds moving a million tons Mr. williamson the banker F'in up an oil tanker better thank her shes a beauty to a movie man she moves me to the end.


( I second the coin saving, but it is Pre 1964 all quarters dimes half dollars and dollar pieces are Pure silver baby, worth good money)
