Ways to Save Money In This Tough Economy
Man, are we cutting back! In this tough economic times our family is looking at every way we can to reduce expenses. One of the expenses that we were able to save a lot of money was switching our phone system over from Cox and Vonage (two lines) to ooma VoIP system. After purchasing the home unit, you get free phone calls for life. We picked the deluxe version that runs $13.00 a month (we had two phone lines to contend with). We are saving around $80.00 dollars a month just on that switch.
Another thing we did is stopped buying bottled water. This was something we got into as a habit. But when you start to add up the cost per gallon of water and the inpact that it has by disposing plastic water bottles in our landfills, then it too made good sense to do. These are just a couple of ways to reduce your monthly expenses. We are look at the cable TV bill next. Heck, we can watch shows for free with streaming video online. Can you think of a few more?
